*Women Climbing the Green Ladder*

Is your workplace addressing sustainability?

Do you feel prepared to help your workplace meet new market and business
challenges of climate change, social justice and limited natural resources?

21st century leadership in the private sector is increasingly being defined
by approaches that blend sustainability and profitability.  While today only
17% of women hold leadership roles in any industry or field; increasingly,
women rising to the top are doing so by incorporating a triple-bottom line
approach to business practices.

Celebrate the book launch of Climb the Green Ladder: Make Your Company and
Career More Sustainable by authors Amy Fetzer and Shari Aaron and come hear
how women are succeeding by embracing sustainability in their careers.

The roundtable discussion will include:

   - Shari Aaron, Founder, Climb the Green Ladder
   - Maria Figueroa Kupcu, Director, Corporate Responsibility and
   Sustainability Practice, Brunswick Group
   - Eleni Reed, Director, Sustainability Strategies, Cushman & Wakefield,
   Inc.
   - Tensie Whelan, President, Rainforest Alliance
