Interested in a B Corp Assessment?
Every year, Michael Shuman asks his students in Bard College’s MBA in Sustainability Program to adopt a company and perform a preliminary B Impact Assessment on it. Might your business be interested? Or do you know any companies that might be interested in going through the assessment process? It’s a two-month project but only requires about five hours of a company’s time. The company should have at least a dozen staff and revenues for several years (no startups). Please pass on this invitation and contact Jen if you’re interested.
Mondays With Michael
On the second Monday of every month, at 3 pm ET, Michael Shuman will hold virtual “office hours” for you to chat about what’s happening in your community—the great things, your challenges, your needs. Don’t miss this perk we’re offering paid subscribers.
Community Capital Live Series
The Main Street Journal co-sponsors an interview with an innovative community capital initiative twice a month. The goal is to highlight new possibilities for your community. You can participate in the live event (for free) or watch our recordings.
