Upcoming Webinar: Purposefully on Purpose: How Purpose Can Build More Societal Trust in Business


On March 15 at 11am EST / 8am PST / 3pm GMT, we’ll be jointly hosting a webinar with Sustainable Brands titled “Purposefully on Purpose: How Purpose Can Build More Societal Trust in Business.”
The degree to which brands are embracing Purpose is growing and revolutionizing what a company can and should stand for. Chris Coulter, CEO of GlobeScan, will moderate a discussion with three remarkable thought leaders:

  • James Morris, Director, GlobeScan: James will present key insights from a global consumer study on understanding, expectations and opportunities for Purpose.
  • KoAnn Skrzyniarz, CEO of Sustainable Brands: KoAnn will share her learning from a year of ‘Activating Purpose’ across Sustainable Brand conferences around the world in 2016
  • Jon Banner, Executive Vice President, PepsiCo: Jon will provide his perspective on PepsiCo’s Performance with Purpose journey over the past decade, including lessons learned and opportunities for business.
