The Green Masters Program is a scalable sustainability certification program that enables Wisconsin businesses of all sizes and from any sector to join a group of like-minded companies working to improve their performance in environmental, social, and governance impact areas that are meaningful to them and their stakeholders. The Green Masters Program categorizes participants into four status levels that reflect the degree to which sustainability has been integrated into their business model: Adapting, Advancing, Maturing, and Green Master.

Green Master status signifies that the organization has identified and is effectively managing its material sustainability issues and performance related to those issues, takes a comprehensive approach to sustainability, and is actively leading the transformation to a more sustainable society.

Each year at the Wisconsin Sustainable Business Council’s annual conference, the achievements of member companies are recognized and celebrated. This year’s conference was held on Nov, 16 at TruStage in Madison.
