Description

Sustainability and social purpose teams often share a similar "north star". In many organizations, these teams work in silos, missing opportunities to combine their expertise, data, networks, and influence. This practical session focuses on how organizations can intentionally integrate sustainability and social purpose workstreams to accelerate results. We will explore the tangible ways each function can benefit from the other - from leveraging data for community impact storytelling, to using social purpose partnerships to strengthen and reinforce climate goals. Leveraging real experience from our session facilitators, this session will unpack where the key synergies are, how teams can collaborate effectively day-to-day, and how to socialize integrated priorities in ways that build momentum, secure budget and resources, and drive your strategy forward.
