Take control: are leaders in denial about the energy challenge?

Strengthening energy control through effective leadership

Organisations are making progress on strengthening energy control. But there is one common weak point: leadership.

Our survey of 500 businesses from across Europe suggests that the c-suite are often disconnected from the reality of the energy challenges facing their organisation. There is widespread concern that overly-optimistic executives are becoming an obstacle to progress on net zero.

In this introductory guide for leaders, we summarise the key steps that executives can take to spearhead the energy transition more effectively, and help their organisation strengthen energy control. It includes practical advice from top industry leaders:

  • Paul Bourke, Head of Energy at PureGym
  • Emma Keller, Head of Sustainability at Nestlé UK and Ireland
  • Oriol Margó, Sustainability Transformation Leader for EMEA at Kimberly-Clark
  • Simone Targetti Ferri, Chief Sustainability Officer at L’Oréal
