Corporate Collective Action in the Age of Urgency

GreenBiz 23 Collective action – businesses collaborating to address common challenges such as climate change and social justice, often with civil society groups at the table – has been hailed as the heart of corporate sustainability practice. It’s also been blamed for multiple parallel initiatives, processes paralyzed by lack of consensus, and progress at a snail’s pace. As we confront the urgency of addressing climate change, biodiversity loss and social justice, sustainability leaders from three prominent brands look into the future of corporate collaboration and partnership to drive action.

Speakers: Michael Kobori, Chief Sustainability Officer at Starbucks; Elisabeth Brinton, Corporate Vice President of Sustainability at Microsoft; Vien Truong, Global Sustainability & Senior Director of Engagement at Nike; and Joel Makower, Chairman & Co-founder at Greenbiz
