Regenerative Approach
Our ESG work is based on a regenerative approach, from the inside out, through personal transformation. In this way we develop conscious leaders and organizations that regenerate their health and that of the social and environmental systems.
How do we do it?
Alignment
The initial alignment of the ESG consultancy aims to sensitize all the collaborators of the organization about the ESG concepts, its importance and present the work that will be done by We.Flow. Besides that, in this stage is constituted the ESG Committee, group responsible to work together with We.Flow in the diagnoses accomplishment and in the implementation of the ESG actions.
Diagnosis
The diagnosis phase is essential for understanding the organization’s current level of maturity in the environmental, social and governance areas, as well as the organizational culture. It is during this phase that the ESG Performance Evaluation Platform is filled out, carried out jointly with the ESG Committee.
Our scope also includes interviews with leaders, ESG trend and benchmark surveys, and stakeholder management for materiality.
Strategy
Based on the diagnosis made, the actions to be taken are prioritized and an action plan is structured, linked to the desired positioning and the main material issues for its stakeholders.
Thus begins the construction and integration of the ESG into the organization’s strategy. The main strategic objectives, their performance indicators, the aspirational impact, and the respective related Sustainable Development Goals are defined.
Implementation
Once the strategy is defined, the implementation of the action plan begins.
Here different actions can occur, such as, for example, the creation of corporate volunteering, code of ethics and conduct, supplier management, non-discrimination policy, environmental commitment policy, waste management, code of ethics, and diversity and inclusion program.
Indicators and targets are also defined and monitored.
Evaluation
Once the company’s impact model has been identified, the evaluation stage begins with the construction of a Theory of Change. This aims to define the desired impact of an organization or project and to define the steps needed to achieve it, always looking for a long-term impact.
Starting from its narrative and the collection of data on the impact generated by the organization, the impact evaluation begins. Through this evaluation, the company can monitor and enhance its ESG performance.
Leadership
At We.Flow we talk a lot about how impact comes from the inside out, it is individuals who propagate change to the organization. Therefore, to ensure an effective ESG in the long term, it is essential that leaders are prepared to deal with its complexity.
During this phase, we promote ESG Regenerative Leadership trainings, facilitations and experiences specific to the organization’s ESG strategy.
Communication
The communication phase aims to promote transparent dialogue with the company’s stakeholders and make public the actions carried out, to inspire change.
With a growing demand for brands that promote positive socio-environmental impact, the participation in events and the construction of ESG content strengthen the organization’s positioning and promote competitive advantages.
Ecosystem
With a developed ESG structure and a growing positive social and environmental impact, it is time to look outwards. The ecosystem stage was designed to promote networking and collaboration among organizations.
Here the company starts to become a reference throughout its value chain and to its main stakeholders, in order to cause a positive systemic impact.
