Onrec Expo Speaker Line-Up

Lizz Pellet, CEO, EMERGE International
Session: Creating a Green Recruiting Function


It's good to be Green. That's what a lot of companies are finding, as they integrate environmentalism and sustainability into their corporate culture. Yet, companies often fail to leverage their environmental efforts in one key area: and that's recruiting. And, that means they are missing a key opportunity, as studies show a commitment to environmentalism and sustainability can be a factor the most desirable candidates weigh when choosing an employer. Lizz's session will look at how employers can ensure their sustainability practices and employment brand are in line with their organizational culture and core values.
