What’s the best approach to developing a sustainability strategy? What should be in and what should you leave out? What goals and objectives should you consider? Who do you need to get on board and how do you engage with them?

These are the questions we’ll be seeking to answer at the next meeting of the Corporate Sustainability Mastermind Group on 24 September. We’ve got another fantastic location – the mediaeval Undercroft at Newcastle upon Tyne’s Live Theatre and we’ll conclude with a sit down lunch at one of my favourite restaurants, Cafe Vivo – an unwritten rule of the group is “no dreary executive buffets” – where the conversation will continue.

As in all Group meetings, there will be no PowerPoint or presentations, but intensive, semi-structured discussion using a unique brainstorming template. Chatham House rules will apply to ensure we can be as honest and open as possible to maximise the value gained by members.
