The role of finance professionals is changing fast. Today’s business leaders expect finance teams to go beyond financial reporting and embrace a deeper understanding of how environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors shape strategy, investment decisions, risk management, and long-term value creation.

The course is led by Shankar Venkateswaran, Managing Partner at ECube and one of India’s most experienced voices in corporate sustainability and business responsibility.
