Building A Greener Sustainable Business

We have special guest Pam Sammarco joining us to talk about how to make your business greener, more sustainable, and ultimately more successful.  Green Business is hot in the market.  Learn how it can benefit your business.

The 21^st Century is known as "The Century of the Environment". Sustainable practices are being developed and implemented in a wide range of sectors – corporate, education, community, non-profit and government.　Have you considered your instrumental role to respond to questions like:

• What do your customers or clients expect employees to know, perform and deliver, when it comes to being a sustainable   business?
• What steps are you taking to operationalize your company’s sustainability strategies by aligning your people to optimize performance and deliver sustainable business results

Come learn to:

• Define sustainability.
• Increase your awareness of the importance of sustainability, in a business environment
• Embrace drivers, trends and best practices to prepare for a sustainability conversation for your business.
• Create your preliminary action plan with corresponding benefits of greening business strategies - e.g., training, employee engagement, culture change, attraction and retention, company's reputation, etc.

How can we create or build upon our influential and proactive role serving our company, employees, environment and economy? This topic affects us all, personally and professionally. Join us to learn more about this transformation and your catalytic role in our community.
