The Man Behind “The Princess’ Speech” to Share Communication Strategy with Attendees at SOS 2011



World-renowned communication coach, Richard Greene, joins an already impressive lineup of presenters at the 2011 Sustainable Operations Summit being held May 15-18th at the Langham Huntington Hotel in Pasadena, CA.

From Heads of State and Royalty to CEOs, Greene has earned a reputation as one of the leading speech coaches in the world. Stories of Greene’s work coaching Princess Diana through a fear of public speaking, evokes a modern-day version of “The King’s Speech”.

Greene will lead a workshop focusing on effective communication skills for top sustainable executives. “I will encourage the participants to think beyond their own sustainability projects and issues,” says Greene, “and join to help sell the larger vision beyond the specific issues of green building, climate change, air pollution, water pollution, energy, etc.” The goal of this session is to arm attendees with the skills necessary to communicate lessons learned and new ideas in a way that not only commands the attention of a room, but motivates an audience to act.

Much like fellow keynote Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Greene uses his unique professional expertise to champion initiatives of personal passion, including sustainable projects and politics. He recently moderated a panel called “The Economics of Sustainability” which featured prominent voices such as James Cameron, Thomas Friedman and Joe Scarborough. During this discussion, Greene helped to frame the argument at hand toward what he calls “true cost factoring” - the act of incorporating the negative effects of all products and services provided into their total cost.
