More on ESG 

There are many good reasons to improve your company’s ESG performance. Most ESG practices lead to reduced risks, many will result in happier, healthier employees, and several can produce significant savings. Studies have found that in Europe, 60% of IT buyers rate sustainability as a key business priority. Sustainability and ethical business practices are becoming increasingly important to customers, business partners and investors. Of course, through sound ESG practices, your company can contribute to combating climate change, protecting the environment, and improving your employees and your community's well-being.  

ESG is not just for large companies; even the smallest businesses can improve their ESG performance. There are plenty of ways to start small, with low-cost, quick-fix improvements. This tool will recommend those quick fixes as well as more ambitious options for those companies ready to take the next steps in their ESG journeys. 

Survey Purpose and Confidentiality

• The purpose of this online survey is to work with sponsor distributors, vendors and partners to evaluate capabilities critical to business success today and tomorrow, and help partners succeed in the market. Participation is optional.
• The data provided by each partner will be treated with confidentiality, i.e. shared only with the related partner. Once completed, participating partners will receive a customized report including an overall anonymous comparison with other survey participants and recommendations on improvement areas based on industry best practices.
• The insights you provide about your company will be shared with vendor sponsors at your request. Vendor sponsors can use this information to inform future partner programs' development and determine how they can most effectively support your company’s ESG journey. 
• Within the distributor/vendor sponsor, survey results will be shared with a Partner Representative (if you have one) for business planning purposes. The information collected will also be aggregated for business intelligence purposes.
