SPONSORED: The Big Question is . . . can sustainable business practices help your company achieve a competitive advantage? Many successful companies have adopted a “triple bottom line” (People-Planet-Profit) approach to doing business, and in doing so have improved employee retention, strengthened stakeholder relations, and improved their brand image. On Thu 9/27 from 11:30AM - 1:00PM, the Nance College of Business Administration will present Noon at Nance, the first in a four-part series on Sustainable Business Practices. You’ll learn to evaluate the benefits and risks to your organization in making a shift to more sustainable business practices. A panel of experts, including Margie Flynn (BrownFlynn) and Tom Morley (LubeStop) will share their experiences in using market analysis to make the business case for sustainability.
