A New Title—“EHS and S”

Dec 11, 2015 10:10 AM ET

I recently attended my first National Association of Environmental Managers (NAEM) conference. It was fabulous! Good content and a nice mix of sustainability practitioners from both large companies, small companies, and various types of advisors.

I think this misses a significant opportunity, especially given the active participation of global business leaders.
