Embedding Sustainability Into Corporate Culture

Embedding Sustainability Into Corporate Culture

With the conversation around sustainability gaining momentum across industries in Malaysia, companies are no longer seeing it as just a corporate responsibility. Rather, it is now an essential part of business strategy, shaping how they operate, grow and engage with their stakeholders. Coupled with rising pressure from consumers, regulatory bodies, and investors, the need to embed sustainability into a company’s core culture is no longer optional, but rather, a necessity to ensure long-term success and resilience.

In this episode, we speak to Jun Ishak, the Chief Human Resources Officer of Berjaya Sompo Insurance and learn how organisations can embed sustainability into the company’s culture, and foster a workplace that thrives on both innovation and inclusivity.
