In this episode of High Agency, we sit down with Radha Curpen, Group Head of ESG and Sustainability at McMillan LLP to explore the growing tension between corporate sustainability, political polarization, and economic growth. Radha shares how an unconventional career spanning environmental law, Indigenous relations, crisis management, and cross-border corporate governance shaped her systems-based approach to leadership, risk, and resilience.
We unpack why ESG became politically fragile, how companies can navigate rising expectations without falling into performative reporting, and why governance is what makes sustainability durable.
