SEAL Organizational Impact Award – Methodology Discussion:
In our discussions with sustainability executives, we have consistently heard these understaffed departments are overburdened by ESG questionnaires and assessments. Of note, a European institutional investor we hosted at our office that was interested in SEAL's perspective on ESG was quite surprised at the length, rigor, and scope inherent in the leading evaluations. We encourage you to review the forthcoming 2022 CSA as evidence.
Rather than create yet another assessment, SEAL Awards' approach to this Top 50 2021 Business Sustainability Award is purely analytical and leverages existing ESG databases. Said another way, no company award entries were considered.
Selected Sustainability Award Winner Perspectives:
- Sandeep Chandna, Chief Sustainability Officer, Tech Mahindra, said, "Tech Mahindra has been a forerunner towards delivering innovative solutions to effectively respond to climate change and drive towards a greener digital economy. Our emphasis on clean energy and optimum use of resources helps us in accelerating our transition towards a low carbon economy, while also creating sustainable value for our stakeholders. Our inclusion in the top 50 sustainable companies list announced during SEAL awards 2021 is a testament to our continuous commitment towards sustainable practices and principles."
