Business Stepping Up: The Lovins Series

Thursday, August 24, 2017

As President Trump pursues a regressive, isolationist agenda, business is stepping up to address climate change, promote equality and protect human rights, and create economic opportunity. Join sustainability pioneer Hunter Lovins for a conversation series with industry experts to explore this shift in progressive business leadership.

August's Business Stepping Up conversation will feature Alejandro Crawford discussing how entrepreneurial strategies and skills are critical for anyone pursuing innovative business solutions to today's toughest challenges. Alejandro Crawford is Managing Director at Acceleration Group, where he enables leaders of mission-driven businesses and nonprofit organizations build bottom-up innovation, forge risk-aware strategy, and seize “acceleration moments” to increase their impact on the markets and communities they serve. He publishes regular opinion pieces for forums such as U.S. News and World Report’s Economic Intelligence blog, and speaks frequently on sustainability, entrepreneurship, and education. His courses and workshops have launched change-makers and innovators across half a dozen universities and an array of client organizations. Crawford serves on and facilitates strategy for various educational boards and is co-founder of the Mountaintop Program, which challenges young people to imagine solutions to problems they identify, in a dynamic exchange with individuals who have created such solutions in practice.

Join Bard MBA in Sustainability as we host the Business Stepping Up Series monthly in downtown Manhattan featuring Hunter Lovins in discussion with Bard MBA faculty and alumni who are part of this business revolution.
