Community Roundtable: From Cost Center to Value Driver: (Re)positioning Sustainability at the Core
Sustainability still struggles with perception. In many organizations, it’s seen as a cost, a reporting requirement, or a reputational buffer — not a driver of growth, innovation, or strategic advantage.
This roundtable is a space for sustainability leaders who are actively reframing how their work is understood, funded, and integrated across the business. It’s about moving beyond proving value — and toward changing the narrative.
When compliance is no longer enough, how do you position sustainability as essential? What are the conversations that shift perception at the top? What metrics, pilots, or alliances are helping unlock influence?
In this peer exchange, we’ll explore:
Real-world examples of repositioning sustainability as a business enabler
What language actually works with finance, product, and strategy leads
How to build internal coalitions — and where to start when you’re on your own
What’s working to shift from project-based to structural integration
Join this session to connect with peers doing the same work, compare what’s landing (and what’s not), and leave with new ideas to elevate your role and reset the story around sustainability. RSVP soon — seats are limited.
