Dear Harshad

 

 

This workshop is ONLY BY INVITATION and to specific individuals and not to all

 

In fact my email to you reached by error – It was meant for Harshad Purandare of Pune.

 

I see however that you have posted this invite across to all

 

This has resulted into a miscommunication and some have started writing to us for registration. We are turning down these requests

 

Could you please send across email of clarification so that we do not get inconvenienced ?

 

Hope you understand our concern

 

Kind regards

Dear Colleagues

 

Sustainability’ is a buzz word which has spawned industry-wide interest and led to the emergence of several corporate sustainability initiatives in recent times. However, many enterprises struggle to achieve significant tangible outcomes from these initiatives. This occurs due to the lack of an embedded sustainability mindset, which is required to drive a dedicated effort based on an overarching sustainability vision and strategy.

 

While some say that sustainability pays, it is hard to find clear evidence that reports material or economic gains or advantages. Consequently, sustainability is perceived to be more of a branding strategy and many skeptics look at sustainability as just a green wash.

 

There are, however, in our midst Corporate Sustainability leaders who have not only demonstrated a clarity of vision and commitment to purpose, but have also been able to achieve impressive sustainability-driven outcomes. Do their achievements provide sufficient evidence to make a convincing business case for Sustainability? How can enterprises get more business value from their Sustainability initiatives?

 

Infosys and Environmental Management Centre (EMC) have conceived a half day workshop on Business & Sustainability in this perspective. This workshop is designed exclusively for business leaders to come together and discuss sustainability in a strategic context, building on realities of implementation and sharing practical experiences. Participation is by invitation only. Attached is the flyer
