Did you know that a large number of the requirements set out by Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) legislation play into the ESG objectives set out in the UN’s 17 SDG Goals? This means that you may be running the risk of redundant effort when it comes to implementing ESG and B-BBEE simultaneously.
“Lanham-Love Consulting, in conjunction with The LLC Academy and The BIG Impact Group (BIG), offer a triple-threat in maximizing B-BBEE compliance, training, and development,” says Angi Lanham-Love, CEO of Lanham-Love Consulting. “The SDG 17 Goals intend to provide a shared blueprint for a more sustainable path towards achieving peace and prosperity for the planet and its people, now and into the future. Considering the fact that the intended purpose of B-BBEE is to support job creation, global competitiveness and economic growth, whilst educating and training the large sector of the South African population that was previously disadvantaged, it’s small wonder that B-BBEE and SDG 17 work so well together.”
“Lanham-Love Consulting is already focused on integrating ESG principles into your business’s B-BBEE strategy so as to fuel sustainable growth and innovation,” says Lanham-Love. “Our approach illuminates a path where your business impact aligns with environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and exemplary governance. By partnering with The LLC Academy and BIG, we offer a trifecta for transformative growth: Lanham-Love Consulting leads your strategic B-BBEE planning, The LLC Academy elevates your staff complement through top-tier training, and BIG ensures that your ESG goals align seamlessly with compliance.”
“This means that none of the time or effort you and your business put into achieving both B-BBEE or SDG is redundant,” says Lanham-Love. “Our focus on increasing efficiency through this strategic approach results in a reduction in time, effort, and money spent on achieving these goals, meaning more resources are freed up for additional or future projects.”
“Frankly speaking, neither Lanham-Love Consulting, The LLC Academy nor BIG see B-BBEE or ESG as a box-ticking exercise,” says Lanham-Love. “We aim to check off milestones for sustainable and affordable advancement that makes a real difference. This is not just about meeting the standards set out by the South African Government and The United Nations: it’s about setting them.”
“By working together, we can craft a B-BBEE strategy for you and your business that builds long-term value and brightens the future of South Africa – and the world,” says Lanham-Love.
