Welcome! We’re glad you are considering joining us this year.
Poised for Prosperity - October 26- 28, at the Cobb Galleria, Atlanta GA
Dear Friends of Sustainability,
GreenBusiness Works and the GreenBusiness Works EXPO Advisory Council are pleased to announce Rosalind G. Brewer, Executive vice president of Walmart and President of Walmart Stores, Inc.'s South Business Unit, has accepted our invitation to open the GreenBusiness Works EXPO 2010 as the keynote speaker. .JPG)
In addition to the overall responsibility for the 1200 Walmart stores in the eight southern states. Ms Brewer has the responsibility to integrate sustainability both in the stores and in field operations, while supporting Walmart's three broad and global sustainability goals:
1) to be supplied 100 percent by renewable energy;
2) to create zero waste; and
3) to sell products that sustain people and the environment.

Walmart proves that sustainability isn't a project or a philosophy but a way of doing business that is good for business. Join us and hear how Walmart has successfully shifted to a way of doing business that aligns with their mission, their business model and flourishes as their culture.
There's no question we have experienced tough, financial times. And there's no question that almost every company, including Walmart, is looking to reduce costs. Join us at the EXPO and learn how Walmart's global goals support and sustain their business prosperity in our region of the country.
Throughout her career, Brewer has performed as a high-impact strategist with rich experience spanning strategic business unit leadership, global operations, research and development and marketing. She's focused relentlessly on revenue growth and customer satisfaction, and she wields expertise in turn-around and re-engineering assignments. As a member of the executive team, Brewer is also part of the leadership that makes sustainability sustainable for Walmart.
Ms. Brewer is the perfect speaker for our opening keynote. She has responsibility for the people in the 1200 southern stores of the company, the profitability of the bottom line, and she drives these initiatives without compromising the planet. We could not be happier to have an executive of this caliber who delivers on the business case for sustainability every day in our region of the country.
I hope you will make plans to join us Oct 26 -28th at the Cobb Galleria.
Join us and become Poised for Prosperity!
