[S-C] Fwd: Human Impact + Profit Opportunities

[Dina Beigelman]

Hi there

I work for a progressive start-up called HIP Investor based in San
Francisco.  We help advise companies on how to measure, manage and
communicate their firm's comprehensive impact - on customers, employees,
suppliers and society - and how it drives profit.

We have some great opportunities I wanted to share with everyone:

   - Our CEO and founder, R.Paul Herman, will be speaking at the
   Commonwealth Club about solving human problems with profit.  This is an
   animated discussion about how measuring four key dimensions of human, social
   and environmental performance (health, wealth, earth and equality) can
   create new opportunities for higher profit, increased societal benefit, and
   a more satisfying way to work, live and invest.

   - After teaming up with Fast Company Magazine to bring a progressive
   outlook on what portion of Big Oil's products deliver positive human, social
   or environmental benefit, R.Paul Herman will be leading an interactive
   discussion about the future of our world's energy - and what it means for
   your company, your portfolio and your world.
