Greening the Enterprise: Survival Tactic for the Downturn, Growth Strategy past the Recovery

Many organizations are reducing energy and other supply use as a tried and true way of controlling operating expenses. The lessons learned from lessening the organization's carbon footprint and ecological impact are sound tactics for coping with the economic downturn. However, these practices can be extended to propel the enterprise going forward.

Come join Glenn Bachman and the New Commons staff in a discussion of how organizations can go green, and how 'light green' organizations can produce greater competitive advantage for themselves.

Glenn Bachman is the author of the recently published Green Business Guide: A One Stop Resource for Businesses of All Shapes and Sizes to Implement Eco-friendly Policies, Programs, and Practices. This hands-on guidebook is receiving wide acclaim for its practical advice for establishing a business case for going green; managing the transformation; identifying and selecting appropriate eco-friendly practices; and telling the story to enhance the organization's image.

Glenn's talk will extend beyond the book's content and will be of interest to representatives of for-profit enterprises, non-profit organizations, and others committed to the ecological responsibilities of the business sector.
