Making the Case: Securing Internal Buy-in for Sustainable Chemistry

Changing political, economic, and R&D cycles can cause uncertainty and a temptation to shift resources away from sustainable chemistry, but this will hinder long-term business resiliency, increase risk, and hurt human and environmental health. Continuing to advance sustainable chemistry and drive solutions in a changing environment requires sustained policy, investment, and market commitments. 

To ensure sustainable chemistry remains a priority, demonstrating and communicating its positive impact on all business functions and through the value chain is critical. During this webinar series, subject matter experts will share tools and insights to assist champions with effectively "making the case". Structured as a series of discussions, attendees will have the unique opportunity to pre-competitively engage with the speakers and other companies facing similar challenges. 

Following the first two installments, this webinar will tackle how champions can secure internal commitments and buy-in for sustainable chemistry. Join this conversation with Chris Aiello, Principal Environmental Scientist at WD-40, to discuss strategies, challenges, and the role leadership must play to develop supportive systems. The benefits of sustainable chemistry on business and balancing sustainability, economic, and cost priorities will also be highlighted. 

*This webinar is available to Change Chemistry members only.
