How it this different from the free Green Spotlight article?

The Green Spotlight article is basically a quick introduction to you and your company. It doesn’t give room for depth or real exploration of your achievements and vision. Green Leader Profiles expand, elaborate, and give you room to really express yourselves and your successes. They cement your place of leadership while at the same time humanizing your efforts, inspiring others to act and support you and your team.

Plus – when we publish a Green Leader Profile, we also post about it across our media platform (Website + LinkedIn + 50K newsletter. That puts you in front of CEOs, CMOs, directors, managers, and many more green decision makers.
