Net Impact Orlando Sustainability Short Takes

Sustainability Business Actions—Short Takes

We do show the name of the company taking sustainability action plus suppliers, if we know them. We do not advertise or accept money from the companies or their suppliers. However, we want to promote and support the action and services of these companies because they are making progress on sustainability. If any of these companies and/or suppliers are sponsors of Net Impact Orlando that will be noted at the end of the short take.

The most important case below, and the most relevant to Net Impact Orlando, is the Dell Business Case that focuses on Deb Albers. Deb Albers took her sustainability passion and knowledge onto her job and into her company. Net Impact Orlando wants to inspire you to take sustainability onto your day job and in your company by providing learning in a way that is fast and easy and provide you expert coaching to be successful.
