Training that genuinely supports your ESG goals
Put your ESG strategy into practice – by developing people and competencies.
Why ESG is more than a report
Organisations today face ever higher expectations:
- Environmental
- Social
- Governance
But ESG is not just data in Excel – it is concrete action. And one of the most effective tools is education.
Training is not an add-on to an ESG strategy. It is a tool for implementing it.
After all, what good is a diversity policy if leaders can’t recognise microaggressions? What good is announcing environmental targets if employees don’t know how to influence energy use or waste in their daily work?
It is education – well designed, measurable and set in the company’s context – that translates into what goes into the ESG report:
- numbers (how many people trained, how many training hours, how many solutions implemented),
- declarations (participants’ attitudes, opinions and commitments),
- concrete actions (changes in processes, communication and management style).
Training indicators increasingly appear in ESG reports – in the S (social) and G (governance) sections. They show that the organisation doesn’t just declare values, but develops the competencies that bring those values to life.
Because ESG is not just a task for the board and the CSR department. It is a capability of the whole organisation – from leader to specialist – to act responsibly, with the future in mind. And that isn’t achieved with a PDF policy alone. It is learned together.
Why ESG with NESSE? Because we do it differently.
Training that works – not just looks good
We don’t run training “to tick a box”. We design experiences that change the way people think and act – not ones that just deliver slides. The training genuinely supports and improves the quality of work and management – and can also be reported in ESG reports.
ESG you can show
We support you in measuring results: indicators, changes in attitudes, implementations. These are concrete facts that go into the ESG report – and make an impression.
Education that builds culture
ESG is not a project, it is the way a company is. We help instil values in teams’ daily work – so nobody needs reminding why it matters.
How NESSE training supports the ESG pillars
Examples of training and how they support ESG in each area:
Environmental
- Critical thinking – teaches analysis of complex environmental problems, e.g. assessing ecological risk and the effectiveness of solutions. Supports decision-making that takes long-term environmental impact into account.
- Change management – supports the implementation of environmentally friendly practices in the organisation.
- Decision-making – teaches people to consider the environmental impact of decisions.
- Creative problem-solving – encourages innovative ecological solutions.
- Presentations and public speaking – well-prepared presentations help communicate environmental results and the ESG strategy effectively.
Social
- Anti-bullying and anti-discrimination – teaches and raises awareness of acceptable behaviour, key to creating a safe working environment.
- Leader’s Vademecum – develops leadership skills that support team well-being.
- Mental strength and resilience workshop – strengthens employee well-being.
- Interpersonal communication – improves relationships and cooperation in the team.
- Managing effective teams – builds cohesive and productive teams.
Governance
- Project management – greater effectiveness in running initiatives, including ESG initiatives.
- Appraisal conversations – support for leaders in communicating goals and values in line with corporate governance principles.
- Organisational culture and values – increases the consistency of actions, behaviours and initiatives with governance principles.
- Conflict resolution – helps leaders manage conflict situations ethically.
- Situational leadership – flexible management in changing conditions.
Training whose ESG effects can be calculated
Quantitative indicators
Number of training participants (broken down by gender, department and position – if required)
Number of training hours – in total / per person
Attendance (%) and completion rate, for online courses
Number of ESG training sessions delivered in a given year
Qualitative indicators
% of participants reporting increased ESG awareness (before vs after training – from the evaluation survey)
% of participants planning specific actions or changes after the training (e.g. introducing new practices, proposing initiatives)
Average training rating (NPS, satisfaction, usefulness)
Declared change in attitudes (e.g. greater openness to diversity, greater awareness of environmental impact)
Implementation indicators
Number of ESG initiatives proposed after the training (if monitored)
Number of new or modified policies and procedures created on the basis of the training (e.g. anti-discrimination)
Good team practices implemented (from checklists or action cards after the training)
