Welcome, everyone. Since the October webinar, Strengthening Internal Support for Sustainability Initiatives, will be held
next Thursday (October 9), I am releasing both of the lead-in videos today. This
series is all about ensuring the success of your corporate responsibility
program. The videos, below, and upcoming webinar focus on managing the critical
factors that will deliver optimal performance and return on investment.
The first video is about building internal support for your
sustainability initiatives. In order to gain momentum, support is needed from
all stakeholders, including employees, shareholders, executive management,
customers, and suppliers. Executive buy-in is essential for budgetary purposes;
but for sustainability to be truly embedded in the corporate culture, it is
necessary to engage all employees.
The second video builds upon stakeholder engagement by
discussing the importance of collaboration, both internally and externally.
Internal collaboration stems from engaging and empowering employees. Getting
everyone involved helps foster unique perspectives and innovation to meet organizational
goals. External collaboration can include working with suppliers, customers,
and yes, even competitors. These partnerships help drive far-reaching
sustainability objectives and can have a measurable impact.
Next week, I will expand upon these topics and
provide further guidance on successful implementation of your sustainability
program. As always, there will be time at the end of the presentation for questions,
so come prepared with any challenges you are facing and I can directly address
your needs. If you would like to access any of my other resources, check out my website. Thanks for following along!
