The resource "written by CEOs for CEOs" has been released ahead of the COP28 climate summit, which is due to start in Dubai on Thursday.
The tool, which recommends investing in the right technical and leadership recruits among other suggestions for credibly acting on the climate challenge, is the work of the Climate Leaders Coalition.
The group of chief executive officers from across the Australian business community all support the Paris Agreement and use the forum to frankly share the challenges involved with decarbonisation.

"But that cannot be a barrier to meaningful action."
