| What Does Green Mean? (really) | ||
|
Green is about sustainability. It is about ensuring growth while minimising our impacts on the environment. Nature follows the path of least resistance and it does not struggle to perform any of its actions. Business has the opportunity to evaluate how it affects the environment, and with imagination, innovation and strategy, reduce this impact and become a sustainable enterprise.
A sustainable work effort is one that manages ALL its energy streams efficiently. Each energy stream refers to a resource the organisation depends upon to operate effectively: your people; your communications; your material cycles; your time; your waste and your travel. The list goes on. Going green optimises how you manage these resource streams, and in doing so, reduces your operational costs.

King III guidelines for corporate governance, the JSE's new Integrated Reporting Standard for listed companies and the government's commitment to the Copenhagen Accord, point the way to a low carbon future where organisations must report on the long-term sustainability of their business models, and balance financial, environmental and social impacts.
Whether your organisation is big or small, our workshops are tailored to position you ahead of the pack and prepare you to meet regulations and targets while finding innovative green solutions that will position you firmly as a leader in the low carbon economy.

Put simply, going green saves you money, creates a common goal to increase workplace productivity and provides you with the leverage to increase market share. |

THE CARBON FOOTPRINT CHALLENGE:
A one day workshop aimed at increasing employee base knowledge of the impacts of their carbon footprint, both at home and at work. The workshop provides a strong foundation from which employees can take actions to reduce their footprint, while identifying how these reductions can lead to a more efficient operating environment both at home and at work. Going carbon neutral enhances your brands’ identity, while also finding efficiencies in your day to day operations, leading to bottom line savings.

THE GREEN BUSINESS CHALLENGE:
This workshop acts as an introductory workshop to green business. It is aimed at highlighting the importance, benefit and opportunities of going green at work, while engaging participants in exploring green in their day to day tasks and finding innovative ways to enhance their companies operations.
We look at your specific business practice, and design the workshop around what you do, so that the solutions we explore can actually be implemented. The green business challenge also considers new laws, policies and regulations coming into effect, and how voluntary compliance can be easily achieved through an innovative sustainability strategy.
