Corporate Responsibility Oversight

We ensure that our sustainability and corporate responsibility goals are not only aspirational but backed up with a consistent structure of accountability.

Expedia Group represents over 22 brands, with corporate responsibility managed using a Portfolio of Brands (POB) model that maximizes the effectiveness of shared services such as Real Estate, Facilities, and Environmental Health & Safety.

Governance for all corporate responsibility issues rests with the Chief Legal Officer. The Head of Global and Community Impact manages and oversees all climate, sustainability, and corporate responsibility programs. Global and Community Impact works in conjunction with Expedia Group’s Head of Global Real Estate to oversee all energy, emissions, and facility-specific activities, including renewable energy strategy for facilities. Together these groups ensure that each office is working towards a shared goal of carbon neutrality for the company. Incentives to reach sustainability goals include team targets, annual reviews, and bonus programs. Our Board of Directors is comprised of 14 Directors. We have three standing committees: Executive, Audit, and Compensation and Nominating. The Executive Committee is comprised of Mr. Diller and Mr. Kern and is generally involved in oversight of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) issues. The Audit Committee generally oversees risk management, including regular reports from the Head of Internal Audit. The Board hears issues and presentations from the various departments managing CSR.

Our commitment to strong governance and accountability protects these values and makes sure we continue our work for years to come.
