    EMEA Recruitment Podcast #168 - The Role of Finance in Developing Sustainable Business Strategy – Oriane Minger & Dr. Ilidio Silva
    2025/01/28
    The EMEA Recruitment podcast is proud to present a limited series in collaboration with Geneva Business School. Conversations with Finance Leaders will bring you the tangible experiences of specialist professionals with the expertise of the Business School’s leading academics. In the inaugural episode, Director John Bower welcomes Oriane Minger, Carbon Finance Manager at SCB Group, and Dr. Ilidio Silva, Professor of Finance Accounting and Sustainability at Geneva Business School, to discuss the role of Finance in developing sustainable business strategy. Please note: This conversation was recorded at the Geneva campus, which may cause some background noise and variations in sound quality. To begin, Oriane introduces SCB Group, an international B Corp company headquartered in Switzerland, which is guided by one mission: to build and promote a low-carbon future. She details the company’s evolution, carbon initiatives, achievements, and her advisory role within the business, involving daily discussions on a range of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) topics. Dr. Ilidio reflects on the role of CFOs, referencing Deloitte’s article, The CFO as the Driver of Sustainability, which argues that CFOs act as catalysts, stewards and operators for promoting sustainability. They possess the necessary toolkit to align ESG goals with the company’s profitability, supported by strong organizational networks and in-depth expertise in data, processes and reporting, he explains. Oriane suggests starting with greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting, a methodology structured in three scopes. By combining Scope 1, which covers emissions from sources owned or controlled by a company (e.g. offices and company vehicles), and Scope 2, indirect emissions from purchased energy (e.g. electricity for the office and company vehicles), you can obtain a clear picture of what you can control and prioritize actions more easily. Scope 3 is more challenging, as it requires data and an assessment of the company’s entire value chain. Oriane recommends collaborating with a partner, as GHG accounting is very broad. She advises assessing your current data accessibility and working closely with your CFO and Accounting teams. Focus on prioritization, bring the right people to the table, and seek support where needed, she says. The conversation shifts to carbon credits. A carbon credit represents a verified emission reduction - one ton of CO2 equivalent that has been avoided, reused or removed from the atmosphere. Oriane cites SCB’s community projects in Nepal as an example of reducing and avoiding emissions. SCB Group identifies carbon credits by conducting due diligence on client projects. They work with reputable registries, ensuring projects are thoroughly tracked and results are publicly available. SCB also partners with trusted project developers and methodologies. In general, regulations are affecting an increasing number of organizations. Dr. Ilidio reiterates that now is the time for companies to embrace sustainability, provide training, and hire professionals with sustainability competencies. LinkedIn’s 2023 global skills report stated that one in eight workers had green skills. However, in Finance, only one in 15 had green skills, showing room for improvement. Additionally, the fastest growing skills in the EU included climate action planning (increasing by 152%), carbon emission accounting (by 131%), and carbon accounting (by 130%). To end the conversation, Oriane discusses her career journey in further detail. Originally, Oriane worked in Finance for seven years, before transitioning to sustainability out of interest and the demand for skills in the area. She then offers examples of similar methodologies and transferable skills between the functions. Upon entering the sector, stay curious, gather the skills, and bring the conversation to your company, she adds. The episode then enters a live Q&A session. The first question was addressed by Oriane, who explained that Scope 3 is a key topic in all current internal and external discussions. The conversation then shifted to how CFOs and Finance Directors, who prioritize the bottom line, perceive sustainability investments. An audience member asked whether these investments are viewed as costs. Oriane explained that it largely depends on the customer and organization. Companies that take proactive steps to address costs and implement sustainable processes now will benefit in the long term, both operationally and financially. Additionally, prepared companies are more likely to attract like-minded customers. Dr. Ilidio added that CFOs can be convinced to invest in sustainability by emphasizing its long-term financial benefits, such as attracting and retaining top talent. The topic of regulations followed, with specific mention of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the challenges of navigating it. Some industries and companies are ...

    EMEA Recruitment Podcast #167 - René Behr – Building Resilience to Power Performance
    2024/10/29
    We were proud to welcome René Behr, Chief People Officer at IWC Schaffhausen, onto the EMEA Recruitment podcast. “True success lies in shaping a future where people and business grow in tandem, leaving a legacy that transcends time.” René has always been fascinated by human dynamics and interactions. He believes that Human Resources is the most influential function in business, because people are critical to success. He cites figures like David Ulrich, the “Father of Modern HR”, inspirational speaker Simon Sinek, and former Google VP of People Operations, Laszlo Bock, as key influences. He also reveals the unexpected profession he’s trained in. Reflecting on his 25-year career, René is most proud of the lasting impact his efforts have had on businesses and people - an impact that goes beyond any single achievement or project. He shares a story about an apprentice from a challenging background who was initially resistant to positive change. Through persistent effort, the apprentice passed his exams and went on to open his own business, where he now educates young apprentices with similar backgrounds. When asked what he would do differently if he had his time again, René highlights that failure makes you stronger. He emphasises the importance of listening to your gut - though it should inform your decisions, not lead them, he adds. Paul highlights the quote René shared on his LinkedIn profile: “Be the change you want to see” by Gandhi. René explains that he interprets this as championing change and leading by example, fostering a culture of continuous improvement. The conversation then turns to IWC Schaffhausen’s resilience programme, which has been rolled out from the senior team across the organisation over a two-to-three-year period. This holistic programme equips teams to manage stress, adapt to change, and face challenges. It includes in-person workshops and lunch and learn sessions aligned with monthly themes, exploring personal resilience and extending into leadership. The sessions aim to break the stigma around mental health, with the goal of creating a supportive environment where conversations can lead to real changes in practice. René stresses that the programme’s success is measured both qualitatively and quantitatively through engagement surveys, tracking productivity, job satisfaction, and retention rates. It’s not just about making people feel good; burnout can be far costlier if not addressed. It’s also a long-term KPI that can’t be measured during the interview process or when onboarding new hires. When asked what advice he would give to his 21-year-old self, René focuses on embracing challenges and failures as learning opportunities, taking risks while remaining authentic, and staying curious. René’s next big dream is to continue shaping the future of work by creating an environment that empowers colleagues to innovate, collaborate, and grow. He looks forward to helping the company navigate changes in its business model and being part of a future where HR has a permanent seat at the table. The episode ends with René sharing his gratitude. He is thankful for his first manager, who saw potential in him and helped him transition into HR, and for his partner, who has supported him unconditionally. René reminds listeners to work on your personal relationships just as much as your business ones - don’t stop. If you’d like to learn more about René’s career, you can connect with him on LinkedIn.

  • EMEA Recruitment Podcast #166 - Kathy Magee – Helping the World Smile

    EMEA Recruitment Podcast #166 - Kathy Magee – Helping the World Smile
    2024/05/10
    “You're changing a child's life, but you're also changing this world to be a better place.” We’re delighted to welcome Kathy Magee, Co-Founder, President and CEO of Operation Smile, to the EMEA Recruitment podcast. Operation Smile is a medical charity dedicated to improving the lives of children with cleft lip and cleft palate. Paul Toms, our Founder, shares a strong personal connection with the charity, which inspired EMEA’s long-standing partnership with the charity, now in its 4th year. To begin, Paul asks Kathy about the last thing that made her smile. She shares that smiling children bring a smile to her face, referring to those whose quality of life is improved by the treatment they receive. Kathy goes on to detail some key aspects of her role; driving key decisions, leading various teams and the strategic planning needed to be able to care for more children and their families in the future. Next, Paul and Kathy delve into the establishment of Operation Smile in 1982. Kathy shares that she was a paediatric nurse and her husband Dr Bill Magee a paediatric plastic surgeon with both dental and medical degrees, specialising in facial surgery. In 1982 the couple joined a team of 15 medical professionals visiting the Philippines to offer free treatment to local children with untreated cleft conditions. She tells us how the team were overwhelmed to find 300 children waiting when only 40 were able to be treated. Upon leaving, the team discussed a plan to help and now, over 42 years later, Operation Smile operates worldwide with a network of more than 6,000 volunteers, plus school clubs where students get involved in fundraising to help those in need. Kathy describes her husband as the visionary and herself as the implementer. In 1999, they set a goal: visit 18 countries in nine weeks and operate on 5000 children. To achieve this goal, they borrowed a medical plane and were able to complete the mission, nicknamed the ‘Journey of Hope’. Among many accolades, the Magees were recognised with the President’s Call to Service Award by George W. Bush in 2007, and in 2009 U.S. News and World Report named Kathy and Bill among “America’s Best Leaders”, an honour for which Kathy credits the entire Journey of Hope team. In this line of work, emotions run high. Kathy shares a heart-warming story of a dentist on the team helping a seven-day-old child in Vietnam who was struggling to eat. That child survived and a year later was one of the first to receive full corrective surgery courtesy of Operation Smile. Volunteers and donors are vital for the charity, which not only provides surgeries but also comprehensive care, such as speech therapy and nutrition at partner hospitals and during Operation Smile programmes. Kathy describes Operation Smile’s volunteers are as incredible; they care for the patients as if their own children, and run a wide variety of programmes including the ‘Champion’ programme – a scheme whereby experienced volunteers who’ve been with the charity for several years directly train the staff in district hospitals, and “Women in Medicine” that has the objective to help more women enter the medical field. There have been five all-women Operation Smile programmes so far around the globe and the charity provides education to support this aim. Paul asks Kathy if she is still as motivated as she was in 1982. She discloses that she recently visited Rwanda and was inspired upon meeting President Paul Kagame by his ambition to provide better healthcare for the people; a mission which Operation Smile is proud to take part in delivering. Kathy then talks about the students who undertake programmes with Operation Smile and are committed to giving back – an all-important aspect of this charity’s work. Paul has written a children’s book, Sloathar the Sloth, to help raise funds and awareness for Operation Smile, with all profits donated to the charity’s incredible programme of work.

Bush 25:30 Managing emotions when in this line of work 31:55 The significance of volunteers to the charity’s programmes 35:45 Kathy’s participation and motivation forty years on The EMEA Recruitment podcast is hosted by Paul Toms, our Founder, and Rose Jinks, Marketing Manager.
