Dialogue with other managers and
researchers about how business
strategies should incorporate adaptation
to climate change!
The debate on whether climate change is
occurring seems to be subsiding. The question
many managers are now asking is: 'How should
business strategies incorporate adaptation to
climate change?'
On November 28, 2008 the
Research Network for
Business Sustainability (based at Ivey), in partnership
with the
International Resource Industries and
Sustainability Centre at the Haskayne School of Business,
and the
Calgary Chamber of Commerce hosted a knowledge forum on Business Adaptation to
Climate Change.
Four experts from
industry and academia -- Dr. Robert Page, Prof. Jonatan Pinkse, Dr. Monika Winn, and Allan Amey
-- presented their
knowledge. Attendees had the opportunity to
share their experiences, both through formal
dialogue workshops and informal networking.
