Sustainability- Growing Your Business for Future Generations:
How is your business re-positioning itself to grow and serve future generations of customers? This question, which is at the heart of Sustainability, is one of the most dominant challenges facing business leaders today. Progressive businesses are alert to conserving natural capital because it strengthens their bottom-line and favorably positions them with global consumers who understand the socio-economic and environmental impacts of everything from chemicals to the amount of water required to wash dirty linens in a large hotel. This is why more companies are going “Green” and using products that are non-toxic, biodegradable, and all-natural. But, Business Sustainability is much more than just going Green! It’s also about eliminating waste, reducing costs, fostering innovation, and creating a balance among the competing interests of stakeholders, employees, and consumers.
In this contemporary, informative, and high-energy presentation by one of America’s most popular business speakers and authors, Tom Hinton shares a powerful Business Sustainability Model that can help position your business as the Reputation Leader™ in its industry.
Tom will provide you with a clear understanding of Business Sustainability and describe specific ways your business can adapt and embrace seven core practices to establish itself as a model for excellence while significantly reducing costs, and building goodwill with your customers.
