Several Members Have Asked: “I’m new to ESG and my company is growing. Where should I start?”
This is a very common situation, but not to worry.
If you have been assigned ESG, sustainability, supplier compliance, or buyer-questionnaire work — but you are still early in the learning curve — do not try to build a full ESG program on day one.
Start with three questions:
  1. What is the buyer or management asking for right now?
  2. What policies, records, or evidence already exist?
  3. What claims can we safely make today without overpromising?
The goal is not perfection.
The goal is to build a simple, truthful, defensible starting point.
If you are new to ESG, start with the Free Supplier Questionnaire Survival Kit. It helps your mind work like a buyers. It will give an idea of the categories so you can see what needs a policy, what needs evidence, and what may need a careful “not yet formalized” answer.
Feel free to ask questions here, or you can DM me.
Sincerely,
Dean
