About the webinar

May 11, 2021 • noon-1 p.m. ET / 9-10 a.m. PT

 

Climate change and other environmental concerns hit home for people and businesses in real and sobering ways every day. Stakeholders at all levels — consumers, employees, recruits, investors — demand awareness and action. A new generation of employees and customers is especially bought in. But some organizations have yet to craft and communicate an internal culture of environmental sustainability. 

Today, businesses need environmental sustainability plans that produce sustainable action. And at the heart of doing this well is building a clearly articulated set of environmentally relevant values and goals embedded throughout the organization, from the C-suite to entry-level employees.

Join us for a panel discussion to hear industry leaders discuss challenges and share best practices, with particular focus on the role of communications in creating an authentic culture of environmental sustainability that’s woven into the fabric of employee experience.
