Beyond ASRS: Turning Sustainability Reporting into Business Value

Join award-winning sustainability advisory &BLOOM for a practical discussion on preparing for the Australian Sustainability Reporting Standards (ASRS) and how organisations can use the process to strengthen governance, strategy and long-term value creation.

ASRS is more than a compliance exercise. Organisations that approach reporting strategically can strengthen board oversight, improve risk management, identify opportunities, and embed sustainability into business decision-making.

Drawing on our experience supporting organisations across governance, strategy, risk management, and metrics & targets, we'll explore how to move beyond disclosure and use ASRS as a catalyst for organisational improvement.

Visakhan Vythilingam (Senior Consultant, &BLOOM), and Bernard Wiley (Director of Sustainability, Who Gives A Crap) will discuss:

• Preparing for ASRS: Practical steps to establish the governance, strategy, risk management, and metrics & targets needed for effective reporting.

• Beyond Compliance: How organisations can use the ASRS process to strengthen decision-making, improve resilience, and create long-term business value.

• In Practice: How Who Gives A Crap is preparing for ASRS, the challenges encountered, and lessons learned along the journey.

• Looking Ahead: Practical resources, key takeaways, and opportunities to continue the conversation after the event.

This session is designed for directors, executives, sustainability professionals, finance and risk teams, and Group 2 and Group 3 organisations preparing for ASRS who want to transform reporting from a compliance requirement into a strategic advantage.
