Outsourced Sustainability

Brands are more transparent with sustainability training for employees

Trend - Brands are more openly calling attention to the sustainability training they provide for their employees and suppliers. These educational initiatives are largely outsourced, as corporate entities choose to rely on eco professionals for optimal success and up-to-date information.

Insight - Millennial and Gen Z consumers tend to make much of their purchasing decisions based on whether the brand values align with their personal belief systems. As conscious consumerism grows, many begin to broaden their demands for sustainability to not only be present in the products that they buy, but also to be better and more transparently embedded in corporate practices and training materials.
Workshop Question - How might you introduce or update sustainability training for your employees?
