How to embed sustainability in your business
BQF Sustainable Development Networking Group
Thursday 12 April 2012, Rickmansworth
Overview
Embedding sustainability can be a challenging process as it requires a significant level of
commitment and engagement across all areas of the business. At this event we will hear
from a company that has successfully transformed their own organisation by incorporating
sustainability into their business planning and strategy resulting in awards and recognition
for having made their business more sustainable. We will also take a wider view of the
drivers for change within organisations and the approaches used to successfully and
thoroughly implement sustainability. This combination of presentations and structured
networking will enable delegates to gain ideas of how to implement such programmes
themselves.
