Today we can announce that the Keynote speaker at the Strategic Value in Corporate Reporting Awards on April 14th will be Penny Shepherd MBE, CEO of UKSIF, promoter of sustainable investment in financial services.
Penny Shepherd has been UKSIF Chief Executive since May 2005.
She is also a lay member of the Actuarial Profession’s Professional Regulation Executive Committee.
She was the first Chief Executive of the London Sustainability Exchange (2001-2005) and has been a member of the Mayor of London's Sustainable Development Commission (2002-2007). She is a former member of the Stakeholder Interests Working Group of the Board for Actuarial Standards and Professional Oversight Board.
Penny is also a member of the Advisory Board of Ethical Corporation, a media company that provides business intelligence on sustainability.
As UKSIF Executive Director from 1997-2001, Penny played a leading role in championing the government’s SRI disclosure regulation for occupational pension funds and tripled UKSIF’s membership. Her leadership in socially responsible investment was recognised in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List in June 2000 with an MBE for “services to sustainable economic development and socially responsible investment”.
Penny spent twenty years in the computer industry, where she advised financial services and other companies on business solutions.
Saturday, February 5, 2011 at 04:03PM Following the 5th Strategic Value in Corporate Reporting Awards on April 14th 2011, a research programme will examine the part strategy plays in the effective use of narrative in corporate reporting. It will focus on how a company should put strategic thinking, planning and management into words, so directors and investors can make better assessments of future potential and worth. And how, beyond compliance, it is a suitable basis for comparability between companies; a source of added value and a means of differentiation.
This research programme is currently scheduled to begin in May or June 2011, on a date to be confirmed.
The programme will be of great value to companies that want to improve the strategic value of their reporting. And, to those that use reports to make, or recommend investment decision, including investors, shareholders, analysts and banks - even key employees.
This site and other Strategic Planning Society publications will support the research programme. Associated with the programme there are also a number of sponsorship opportunities.
If you are interested in being part of the programme and / or in sponsorship, please register interest.
