Ratings and Frameworks: Where is the Puck Going?

Wayne Gretsky, the well-known hockey player said, “I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.” As the CSR/ESG/Sustainability disclosure landscape changes, where is the puck going? Learn more and how it impacts ratings and rankings in the new e-Book.

 “Ratings and Frameworks…Where is the Puck Going?” explores:

• Where Has the Puck Been?
• Why the Puck Hasn’t Gone Into the Goal
• Where the Puck Will Head Next
• If You Want to Score, You Will Need to Change the Way You Play
  
  

As the world’s largest sustainability business intelligence database, CSRHub is in a unique position to understand corporate social responsibility (CSR) ratings. We have studied each of our 525 data sources’ metrics, and our system automatically identifies which sustainability reporting investments add the most value, pinpoints areas of lagging or leading performance, and produces benchmarks against other companies. In How to Improve Your CSR Score, CSRHub will try to share some of the “secret sauce” its co-founders, Cynthia Figge and Bahar Gidwani, have developed through their combined 30+ years of experience with sustainability metrics.

Understand the Ratings Landscape:

“In the movie Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, as the outlaws are relentlessly pursued by the sheriff and his posse, Paul Newman (Butch) occasionally stops to ask, “Who are those guys?” The ratings landscape may feel like this – unknown sources that doggedly track you down. The ratings landscape can be confusing and seem unfair—unless you happen to be out in front.  In this e-Book series, How to Improve Your CSR Score, we’ll share our experience to help you better manage your rating stakeholders, improve your performance, tell your CSR story, and improve your CSR score.”
