With so many "green conferences" in the marketplace, why have organizers launched the Lean and Green Summit? This Summit will uniquely bring together the passions of two committed groups... advocates of operational excellence who see the implications lean principles have in sustainability because of lean's inherent waste-reduction goals environmental advocates wanting to move industry toward sustainability by using common tools already used in industry Far from a traditional conference, the Lean and Green Summit will be highly participatory, before, during, and after. The Summit is not as much about educating as it is about problem solving. Think solutions, not theory. Think action, not talk. Summit Outcomes Two outcomes are expected to come from the Summit: Participants will leave with an actionable plan for moving their companies along the road to sustainability, which is why companies are bringing entire planning teams to the Summit. The collective group will create a new body of knowledge in addressing issues of sustainability - knowledge developed through peer to peer and attendee to presenter interaction. Who should attend? The Lean and Green Summit is designed as an executive level event. Senior leadership and their entire planning teams should come prepared to address the growing demand for sustainable businesses. www.leanandgreensummit.com ---------- Click to Opt Out: https://www.regonline.com/emailonline/members/memberoptout.asp?MemberId=yYleW A8qMfmRui1BwLM8sQ%3D%3D Click to Respond: https://www.regonline.com/eventInfo.asp?MemberId=yYleWA8qMfmRui1BwLM8sQ%3D%3D &JobId=1269112&EventId=182453 Click to Tell a Friend: https://www.regonline.com/Registrations/tellafriend.asp?EventId=182453&encAtt endeeId=yYleWA8qMfmRui1BwLM8sQ%3D%3D Dwayne Butcher, Lean and Green Summit 9128 Technology Lane, Fishers, IN 46038 317.813.5455
