"Connection is key. A connected team is a creative team, because they have a place where they are seen, heard, and known.

Today’s organizations hold the power to help solve some of the world’s biggest challenges, but many overlook the role that sustainable business strategy has in building a stronger future. Recent research sponsored by Iron Mountain shows 36% of resilient organizations are ahead of their peers in making progress toward their ESG goals and commitments.

Is your organization as resilient as you think?

Resilient organizations don’t always have all the answers. However, they do know this—you need to learn from the past to focus on making progress. According to Aurora Cammarata (she/her/hers), our Corporate Real Estate and Facilities Advisor, now is the time to apply those lessons to create a more flexible and adaptable workplace.

Is your organization as resilient as you think?
