win the war for talent
There is a growing recognition
that younger generations
of talent are seeking out
businesses that increasingly
align with their moral values
across environmental, social
and governance initiatives.
These include efforts to reduce
corporate carbon footprints,
improve employee wellbeing,
and ensure diversity and
inclusion.

important, Covid-19 has
kickstarted a new wave of green
thinking among employees:

device and an investment,
choosing to base their teams
in green, sustainable offices is
a clear way to demonstrate a
commitment to the cause (for
both employees, clients and
competitors).
