Green Communications 2008: The Case Studies Confrence

Recent history shows that green initiatives are more then just a passing trend; they are a part of daily life. Individuals, communities, and companies have embraced this movement and now incorporate it into their lives, products, and business strategies. This half day conference will reveal case studies from companies that have successfully created and implemented green communications campaigns. They will specifically address the questions, issues, and opportunities facing the corporate communicator and marketer.

What are specific examples that demonstrate how companies communicate their green initiatives?
What are the lessons learned from these campaigns?
How are green campaigns different and/or similar to standard programs?
How does my company communicate "going green" authentically without being perceived as "jumping on the bandwagon"?
What resources are available to help me and my company with, plan and execute green campaigns?
What can my company do differently in future green endeavors to separate the strategies previously implemented in order to grow with the movement?
