As you may know, I’m co-coordinating (with Renee Spears of Rose City Mortgage Specialists) the Beyond 2020 Sustainability Unconference. We just settled on a theme and opened early-bird registration!
Join us on Thursday, May 6th, 5-8 pm at KEEN Footwear, 926 NW 13th #210, Portland, Oregon to discuss “Collaboration for Sustainable Business”.
Collaboration for Sustainable Business
How can you put collaboration to work for environmentally and socially sustainable business? How can you use collaborative tools and processes to share and benefit from abundance?
When it comes to sustainability in business, there’s power in numbers. A coordinated group of people or businesses can make a greater impact than individuals acting alone. But in order for businesses to collaborate successfully, you must address several issues.
- What endeavors are best done collaboratively and how do you identify common goals?
- How can you find and join forces with fellow business leaders?
- How do you balance the goals, skills, and tasks among your collaborative partners?
- What are the decision-making and management options for collaborative enterprises?
- What are examples of successful collaborations in Portland and beyond?
Come to the 3rd Beyond 2020 Sustainability Unconference on May 6th to seek and offer answers to these questions.
- Present your ideas and needs, and offer your skills for collaborative projects.
- Share experiences with collaboration tools and processes.
- Develop skills for collaboration toward sustainable business.
- Discuss what you need and can offer for collaborative projects to create more sustainable business and the world.
