Michele Abraham on What Makes Up ESG


Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast, co-hosted by Lisa Fine and Mary Shirley.
ESG, CSR, Sustainability…it seems like the thing that everyone is talking about lately.  In today’s Great Women in Compliance podcast, Lisa speaks with Michele Abraham, Senior Director – Ethics & Compliance, Associate General Counsel at Cooper Standard.  Michele is a leader in this area and has worked to integrate ethics and compliance and ESG.
She talks about what she thinks that compliance officers must to when they are starting to develop an ESG program, and also how the “E” of ESG – “environmental” is often more operational, but the “S” and “G” – Social and Governance – is at the forefront of what E&C professionals are doing today.
Michele is an advocate for Gretchen Ruben’s “The Four Tendencies,” which discusses four personality types and how to work with them.  There is a quiz, so she is asked to guess Lisa’s tendency.
And she concludes with some of the best advice she received…from her mom.
