Love the sustainability angle; too often organizations concern themselves with conserving capital & behaving responsibly with natural resources, but give very little thought to caring for their most valuable resource: their people. And in the process, allow a lot of creativity, initiative, and other valuable human contributions to be frittered away, to dry up, to end up on the trash heap (or on someone else's payroll). This is a refreshing view of the broader picture: all the parts that go into creating an environment where people can and do give the best they've got to their employers. Right on!
