The third event in the Adversity to Advantage Conference Series. Due to the merging of DHI programmes with those offered by Workplace Innovation Ltd under the heading of its ‘Fresh Thinking Labs’ structure of programmes, pressure of work has caused us to postpone this event until the Spring of 2023. Our collaboration with FTL will significantly widen the choices we can offer our students in the development of their future careers. In this now postponed online event we will bring together business leaders to discuss one topic:
What is the role of the Quality Related Sciences in Creating a Sustainable Future?
2 Day Virtual Conference revised date to be announced.
Taking care of the Earth and its resources, along with the people who make organisations successful is now one of the key factors keeping CEO's awake at night. Investment managers and policymakers are all demanding practical action, sustainable products and evidence of outcomes.
The Quality related sciences have an important role to play in ensuring sustainability is embedded in corporate culture. Vince Desmond, CEO of the CQI, said "Sustainability can have many different interpretations, especially in business. However, for the CQI, its meaning is simple. Companies with a sustainable approach meet their needs without compromising the needs of their customers, stakeholders or our planet. Sustainability is embedded in their corporate culture. It is part of their values and it is supported by a robust quality management system".
This thought provoking conference invites influential speakers from the world of Quality and beyond to educate us on how businesses can build a robust sustainability strategy and how to get started. Michelle Carvill, author of 'Sustainable Marketing - How to drive profits with purpose'; Diana Mather, Presenter and Coach; Vince Desmond CEO of CQI; Peter Totterdill, Founding Director of Workplace Innovation, Lars Sorqvist, CEO of Sandholm Associates; Michael Hutchins, Co-Founder of ACT Leadership, David Couldrey, Technical Director at Wicks Manor and Arron Taylor, Completions Specialist at Schlumberger are just some of the esteemed speakers asking what are businesses doing to move sustainability onto the list of core values.
Business leaders will find sessions on building culture and environmental sustainability invaluable.
"This is a great way to get lots of educational content into one place at one time. Hugely practical, our team can work on ideas together for two days without travelling to another city”
