Join us on February 7th as author and sustainability change agent Dr. Bob Willard explores cutting edge research on an emerging “Gold Standard” to recognize a truly sustainable enterprise – an enterprise that will lead us to Capitalism 2.0. During this interactive discussion Bob will highlight:
- The global effort to define new standards, principles, indicators, and metrics for a sustainable enterprise
- Why the current rankings of the most sustainable companies are not helpful
- Why important stakeholders are anxiously awaiting a better model to assess companies
- Why companies that have already started to set Gold Standard-like goals have achieved greater profitability, resilience and cultures of innovation
- Bob’s own suggested environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria for a Gold Standard
This session will provide a sneak peak into where sustainability is going – for those who are serious about staying ahead of the trend, this event is a must attend.
* GROUP BREAKOUT session:
Each group will come up with several criteria of their own to assess an organization’s sustainability performance.
