Ruth Andrade teaches: Redefining Corporate Leadership

Session Overview

In an era where corporate responsibility is a mandate, not a choice, Ruth Andrade from Lush Cosmetics leads participants through an immersive exploration of regeneration from a corporate perspective. This session stands as the final part of an intricate three-part Masterclass, exclusively focusing on the transformative power of regenerative principles within the corporate sphere.

Ruth will challenge traditional business paradigms, showcasing how corporations can move beyond conventional sustainability to become agents of systemic environmental and social change. Drawing on her rich experiences, she will illustrate the potential for businesses to catalyze regenerative efforts that foster resilience, innovation, and ethical influence in the market.

  • Responsibility and Accountability: Discuss the roles of responsibility and transparency in shaping a corporation's ethical and environmental footprint.

  • Lush Cosmetics Case Study: Delve into a real-world application of regenerative principles, learning from challenges and successes Ruth encountered at Lush.
