State of the Profession 2013

January 8, 2013
State of the Profession 2013

The GreenBiz Group’s third annual “State of the Profession” report takes a look at the emergence of the sustainability executive and its unique role in industry. As in years past, we surveyed members of our GreenBiz Intelligence Panel to find out how much they made, where they worked, and what they did in the course of their job.

This year we also wanted to provide a richer background for understanding where sustainability sits within an organization, how its leaders got there, and what they are likely to be doing in the future. Defining roles in this context can be a moving target as managers and executives continue to push and expand the definition of sustainability leadership.
