Charles Lockwood is an internationally recognized corporate sustainability strategist and "a green real estate authority," according to the Wall Street Journal. Lockwood is a sought-after keynote speaker, most recently at the Green Building Council of Australia's 2009 annual convention. He speaks before industry associations and companies like IBM and Deloitte. Three of his most timely presentations are:

• The Leading Industry of the 21st Century: Are You Ready?
  
• Green: The Money-Saving Strategy for Tough Times
  
• Global Climate Change: Minimize Your Company's Risk and Maximize Its Opportunities
  

He also leads interactive executive briefings for 10 to 12 participants.

Lockwood's keynote addresses and presentations dramatically illustrate how the right sustainability actions help firms generate immediate cost reductions, gain greater market share, and boost all-important workforce productivity. Audiences learn how to prepare for upcoming government regulations for reduced energy use and greenhouse gas emissions and how to minimize their company's overall risk.
