Part of this story
The Greenwash Dilemma
→Marketing wants to say 'sustainable.' Operations knows it's not. Navigate the greenwashing temptation when the truth is more complicated.
Part of the quest
Environmental Responsibility
→The inconvenient data, the greenwashing temptation, the budget battle for sustainability, and the pragmatist's path. Navigate corporate environmental responsibility when doing the right thing conflicts with the bottom line. You'll navigate four escalating scenarios — from the inconvenient data to the pragmatist's path — practicing the decisions that matter most when the pressure is real and the stakes are personal. This isn't theory. It's practice for the moments that define how this chapter of your life unfolds.
