Bob Willard, Sustainability Author and Speaker

Bob Willard is proud to announce the release of the 10th version of his Master Slide Set for sustainability champions. Bob is a speaker and author on sustainability. Based on the audience, he usually selects 30-40 slides from his much larger Master Slide Set. In June 2007, he began to make his comprehensive Master Slide Set available to the public to help build the capacity of change agents creating sustainable enterprises - see http://www.sustainabilityadvantage.com/products/slides.html.

He maintains the Master Slide Set by monitoring about a dozen news clip services for news about how the business community is progressing on its collective sustainability journey and how current drivers are accelerating that progress. The set also includes extensive backup information in slide format from his three books. The Master Slide Set had 132 slides in its first edition in June 2007; the milestone 10th edition released today has grown to 425 slides, organized into ten subsets.

1. Introduction / Terminology / 3-Legged Stool
2. 5-Stage Journey / Iceberg of Company Value
3. Perfect Storm of Risks / Pressures from Consumers and Scientists
4. Pressures from Economists and Investors
5. Pressures from the EU Market, States / Provinces, and Cities
6. Pressures from Corporations, Universities, and others
7. Large Company and SME Benefits
8. Detailed Benefits
9. Leading a Transformation to a Sustainable Enterprise
10. Summary / Close

"It is heartening that hundreds of sustainability champions around the world are using this resource to be more effective leaders," says Bob. "My intent was to help sustainability professionals be more credible and effective change agents by sharing my facts data base with them in slide format. Subscribers' feedback reinforces that the slides help them stay current on sustainability progress in the business community and help them confidently build that exciting wave of sustainability momentum."

Because the slides are in their original PowerPoint format rather than pdf format, users are encouraged to incorporate them into their presentations and to use them in any way that is helpful to their efforts as credible sustainability champions. As subscribers, they receive quarterly alerts that a new version is available for downloading, so they continuously benefit from the latest news and updates to slide summaries of Bob’s books.
