When working with ESG, it is a good idea to conduct a value chain mapping. It provides you with a structured overview of your activities, resources, and stakeholders. In doing so, the mapping also highlights where your organisational structure may need strengthening.
Through mapping, you can identify risks and opportunities for sustainable improvements and make it easier for stakeholders to understand what you are doing — and how.
