  • Description: Increasingly, companies understand that they can strengthen their competitive advantage and reach new heights through innovation and sustainability. Increased collaboration and cooperation among all sectors will accelerate the pace by which companies can achieve sustainability. The time is now to empower more employees who work inside corporations to champion sustainability. Companies such as HP and Wal-Mart have active, well-branded employee-engagement programs where they work to bring education and awareness about sustainability to their employees. The theory is to train employees to think like sustainability champions and empower them to find practical, business-building solutions for their workplaces. HR departments, focused on employee career development, can champion employee training on sustainability and harness the collective innovation of their employees.
