What is a “Sustainability Narrative” and Why is it Important to Your Company?
Register here for What is a “Sustainability Narrative” and Why is it Important …
Sharing your corporate message in the sustainability era is tricky business. Experts agree that sustainability doesn’t mean anything real to consumers. Too often, it brings to mind technical issues or overwhelming environmental challenges. More than ever consumers want to live meaningful lives and engage with brands that are driven by purpose. They want to trust that a brand is making good choices for them.
[Please have a look at the recent report by BBMG which takes a closer look at this evolving challenge for companies. "The New Sustainability Narrative: Tapping into Meaning and Purpose."]
