2022 Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Report

emissions reduction targets, including a net zero target. To enable us to more accurately and transparently report our progress toward these goals, we are implementing Salesforce Net Zero Cloud, an advanced reporting solution. This next-gen technology is designed to not only allow us to report against our own portfolio and operations, but also streamline how we collect data for the properties we manage on behalf of our clients, as well as our supply chain. Advancements such as this demonstrate we are a strong sustainability partner. Q: Why is it important that Cushman & Wakefield is pursuing ESG objectives? A: We know the construction and operation of buildings are responsible for nearly 40% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions, which means we have an opportunity to minimize our environmental impact and make a measurable contribution to mitigating climate change. What we do as a real estate company truly matters. And our focus on ESG goes beyond environmental topics to social issues such as diversity, equity and inclusion and to governance issues such as sustainable procurement. We see this as an opportunity to lead by example, while also supporting our clients’ efforts. Q: What is your vision for the future of sustainability at Cushman & Wakefield? A: I’d love to see our organization continue to grow as a sustainability leader in the commercial real estate industry. There is significant opportunity for us to differentiate ourselves by accelerating the pace of our ESG efforts. When it comes to making a difference and achieving ESG success within their real estate portfolios, I want Cushman & Wakefield to be the partner of choice for our clients on their ESG journey.

Second, they're looking for a partner that can provide ESG services that will help them achieve their real estate ESG goals. While most clients are focused on reducing the environmental footprint of their real estate portfolio, we're increasingly being asked about what we can do to support clients on the social side, whether it's health and well being, DEI or just helping them attract and retain talent. Q: As Global Head of Sustainability, Global Occupier Services how do you help clients achieve their ESG goals? A: One of the areas that I’ve been focused on lately is helping our clients translate their corporate sustainability ambitions and strategies to their real estate organization. We collaboratively help them articulate their ESG vision, define their ESG goals and targets, and then develop a high-level action plan to achieve those goals and targets. Our objective is to set them up for success by focusing their team on the most important ESG topics and tying their ESG approach to the overall corporate objective—whether it's saving energy and carbon, cutting water and waste, or incorporating sustainability guidelines into design and construction projects. Q: How are you advancing ESG within Cushman & Wakefield through efforts such as the implementation of technology solutions like Salesforce Net Zero Cloud?
