I work with companies on ESG (Environment, Social, and Governance) data management from data template design, data collection, to data analysis and summary. Data management is conducted in compliance and accordance to Sustainability Reporting framework(s) such as GRI and​/​or GHG Protocol. My approach to data management is as follows: 1. Data template reviews are designed and customized for each client, ensuring that internal KPIs, regulatory, and framework requirements are reflected in the data collection template to avoid collection redundancies. A centralized data collection file is encouraged for efficiency and immediate feedback on data collection. 2. Data collection begins with a data kick-off that includes high-level training on the data requirements (definition, source, and formula​/​alternative data) and timeline discussion. Following the kick-off is a data discovery phase to better understand the emission sources and activities prior to collection. During the data collection period, regular check-ins are conducted to review data and answer questions and concerns. Where edits are necessary for the template, we work together to update the distributed file(s). 3. Data analysis includes consolidating data, converting and calculating data to its final unit (ie. consumption data to emission data). Other services include: 1. ESG Data 101 sessions are for teams beginning their sustainability journey. This includes the role of data in the sustainability journey for the organization. This also and includes team "buy-in" messages regarding data collection. 2. ESG Data Advanced sessions are for teams looking to continue in their data collection journey. This includes an assessment of the current process, identifying areas of improvement, and working with the team on implementing changes and a roadmap to a fully implemented data collection "vision". 3. Data visualization - for clients with Power BI or Tableau accounts that are looking for an interactive and dynamic ESG dashboard
