Behind the Boardroom Door

Guest: Maya Chorengel, Co-Managing Partner, The Rise Fund The growing importance of corporate purpose and environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategies are changing the way boardrooms operate. The past year has shown just how important it is for companies to lead the way, particularly on social issues. From protecting frontline workers to striving for racial justice, companies have the reach and resources to create real change. Maya Chorengel has spent over two decades contributing to that change. As a veteran of many director positions – including a board position here at Benevity – she has seen corporate purpose and ESG transform conversations by making companies rethink their role as social actors. Maya joins us on this episode of Speaking of Purpose to discuss how systemic problems require systemic solutions, and how learning from environmental strategies can help guide our action on social issues.
