I feel it's a bonus if you can find a like minded company to work with.

Being sustainably minded myself and also offering a 'sustainable' product I feel it is beneficial if I can work with businesses in complementary fields, as we can recommend each others products and services and hence offer our customers added value by looking beyond our own immediate specialism.

Ultimately, the customer benefits because his needs and requirements are being addressed; you, as the recommender benefits because you are seen to be proactive and are helping the client; and the like minded company you have recommended benefits too.  Everyone's happy!

Hi Natalie,

Like others, I too feel an important area of business growth is to develop synergies in our professional life with our ethics and views on the world we live in. Working with people we have empathy with is so much easier with customers and the who supply chain benefitting.

Hi  - I just did this article for my company newsletter called "21 ways to green in the office". I thought I would share it. I did post it in another forum but I guess that was in the wrong spot however one or two  people did add extra suggestions which I think are also great ideas.

Judy, a good list!

I produce an e-bulletin each month and wonder if I could include this? I would of course and you as the source!

Best wishes

Hello All,

I echo all the good things everyone has said above.

I particularly like the Win:Win:Win senario that Nigel has painted.

With all the work that I do, I try and ensure Win:Win:Win senario is possible.

That's what gets me out of bed every morning. Hear hear Nigel :-)

It definitely helps if I'm working with like-minded businesses as we wil have some common ground from which to build and stengthen the relationship.

I gain a lot of knowledge working with such companies and like to think that I also help to expand other peoples knowledge. After all, through sharing of knowledge and skills, we all benefit in business, personally and globally as a society.


Warm wishes,
Dan
