What is the Value of Business Values?
Is there value to business values? Is "sustainability" a method to grow your business, or an expensive buzz word that cuts into your profits? Does running an ethical business help or hurt you in the long run?
MEBSR, Maine Businesses for Social Responsibility, is tackling these questions in its 12th annual fall conference, "The Value of Business Values."
This will be an interactive program featuring:
- Eight current Maine business challenges
- Eight Maine business and thought leaders
- Interactive problem-solving charrettes
- The launch of MEBSR's new regional gatherings
- Dedicated time to making connections with peers and possible mentors
Topics will include:
- Green Business Design by Jason Wentworth of Washboard Eco-Laundry,
- Creating Quality Place and A Prosperous Maine by Rep. John Piotti,
- Ahead of the Curve & Competition: Health, Safety & Wellness by Deborah Roy of L.L. Bean,
- and many more.
