In September 2025, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and Oxford Sustainable Finance Group published a practical guide on transition plan dependencies for companies. It sets out seven practical steps to identify and address the factors outside a company’s control that might impact the delivery of their climate transition plans. This supplement created in collaboration by WBCSD and Chapter Zero complements this guidance with considerations and questions for non-executive directors (NEDs) as they work with fellow board members to set strategic ambition for transition plans and provide oversight for their operational delivery.

In collaboration with the Carbon Trust, the first module in our Transition Planning series explores the role of the non-executive director (NED) in ensuring organisations follow best practices in assessing climate-related risks and opportunities, the scenario analysis methodology to support such assessment, and practical insights of key levers for organisations to develop a transition plan.

Chapter Zero is proud to have played a part in the work of the Transition Plan Taskforce (TPT) that today delivers a best practice Disclosure Framework for climate transition plans so companies can play their part in the shift to net zero.
