For 2024, CEOs in the US and worldwide cite education as their top ESG priority, followed by economic opportunity, security, and equality. Our 2024 C-Suite Outlook global survey finds that CEOs rank these social priorities above other pressing sustainability issues such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and facilitating a fair energy transition.
In tackling complex social issues, CEOs should be sure to enlist their corporate social responsibility functions as central partners. These departments have long-standing experience in educational and economic development issues, including working closely with communities and a range of governmental, educational, and nonprofit institutions.
