Speakers:

Gary Sheffer, Executive Director, Communications and Public Affairs, and Jen Walsh, Global Director, Digital Media

Being "green" is fashionable today for many big companies but credibility only comes if your environmental message matches your business strategy. Learn how GE devised a strategy for its "ecomagination" campaign that is focused on business results and shareowner value. This seminar will describe how this strategy was executed across multiple platforms and how the results are being measured. Gary and Peter also will discuss how strategic outreach to environmental groups, customers, and thought leaders helped inform GE's goals for the program as well as its positions on public policy issues such as climate change.
