Domtar's Collaborative Approach to Sustainable Forestry

Billions could be spent developing state-of-the-art technologies that capture carbon dioxide out of the air, and they wouldn’t come close to the elegance and cost-effectiveness of the greatest carbon sequestration tool already at our disposal — the world’s 3 trillion trees. That might sound like a lot, but with a net loss of 12.8 million acres — the equivalent area of Costa Rica — occurring each year, we are swiftly outpacing the rate at which forests can regenerate.

To Mentor or Be Mentored: Everyone in the Workplace Has Something to Teach

A recent survey of 1,000 millennials by Zeno Group found that while millennial women highly value mentorship, only 60 percent of them have mentors; and those who had them were more likely to believe they were on track to achieve their professional goals. As development is a critical part of employee growth and engagement, Baxter developed a new framework that serves as a unique relationship-based, professional development approach to mentorship in which one person facilitates the growth of others during a sustained period of time by sharing resources, expertise, knowledge and skills, and perspectives.

Follow the Money: Creating a Successful Corporate Giving Program

Charity benefits both humanity and business. Not only do employees feel good about being socially aware and supporting communities in need, but working towards a common charitable goal also forges a bond with colleagues as they help tackle issues together that are larger than themselves. Many socially conscious companies are interested in becoming involved with charitable work, but find it easy to get overwhelmed with the myriad of charitable options and different strategies available when actually working to implement a charitable giving program within an organization.
