2012 Queens University Workplace Flexibility Forum:
Beyond the Caregiver Crisis: Flexing Our Perspective on Workforce Development
November 15, 2012
In 2012, I was asked to contribute to an on-going dialogue on the subject of workplace flexibility - serving as committee member, panel moderator and speaker for the 2012 Queens University Workplace Flexibility Forum (http://workflexforum.com).
While the Forum served to address multiple facets of the work flex dialogue - ranging from traditional HR issues and current White House initiatives to corporate policy and advances in virtual workplace technology, this presentation addresses the issue of work flex from the perspective of environmental sustainability - providing an overview of global emissions and mass urbanization trends, while highlighting emergent policies that seek to leverage workplace flexibility as a means to reduce carbon emissions.
