1. Are you leading double materiality assessment sessions?
2. Do you often spend valuable time explaining core concepts to your clients?
3. Would you like to streamline these discussions from the outset?
If you’ve been following my recent posts on the double materiality (DMA) output space and the distinctions between negative and positive impacts, these scenarios may sound familiar—and you’re probably nodding “Yes” to all three.
