This special episode of the CSO Impact Podcast was recorded during the Futur/io CSO Reception in Paris, part of the ChangeNOW Summit in April 2025.

In this panel, Carine de Boissezon, Chief Impact Officer at EDF, and Ulrike Sapiro, Chief Sustainability Officer at Henkel, discuss the Role of the CSO in Shifting Times. The conversation is moderated by Harald Neidhardt, CEO and Curator of Futur/io.

Carine and Ulrike talk about integrating sustainability with finance, addressing challenges in the energy transition, and the social implications of sustainability efforts. They emphasise the need for systemic approaches to sustainability, the importance of data in decision-making, and that it is crucial that CSOs have a strategic view of their role.
