Welcome to our eighth update for members. I am delighted to share our latest guest blog with you which comes from Jessica Fries, Executive Chair, the Prince’s Accounting for Sustainability Project (A4S), one of ICMIF’s three global partner organisations. Jessica looks at the lessons learnt from the Covid-19 pandemic and how we can build back better. She notes that organisations which are purpose-driven and which have a sustainability business plan have fared better as businesses during the crisis.

If you haven’t already downloaded the latest ICMIF Strategic InSights report “The next generation of mutual talent” then I highly recommend that you do so. It is crucial that we continue to attract and retain the best of the upcoming talent to our sector. Our report will give you examples of how. Versions now also available in Spanish and Japanese.

We have more webinars to share with you this month and details on how to register are here. We have already delivered over 30 webinars in 2020 and recordings are available for immediate viewing.

So far this year we have shared over 150 news stories on our website. Please continue to share your stories with us by sending them to me Shaun@icmif.org or our Communications Manager Alison@icmif.org. You can read all our news here and follow ICMIF on social media on LinkedIn and Twitter.
