How do you know how “green” a company is? We hear a variety of claims and observe a number of efforts (we recycle!) but it’s very difficult to know which claims are sound bites and which are substantive and meaningful. What are the efforts that can really have an impact and tell the story that you want to have told? This discussion is designed to explore some of the latest trends and strategies in corporate sustainability. Topic areas will include:
- Identifying areas of impact
- The business case
- Realizing the triple bottom line
- Case studies
- Rolling out initiatives in the real world
- Policies and programs
- Benchmarking and reporting
- Marketing and branding sustainability
