Have you ever stopped to consider the true cost of a product—not just the dollars spent, but the environmental footprint left behind?

In this powerful episode of Project Management Masterclass, host Brittany pulls back the curtain on what sustainability really means in the world of project management. From the design phase to end-of-life disposal, 80% of a product’s impact is locked in before it hits the factory floor—and that means you, the project manager, play a bigger role than you think.

📌 You’ll learn:

  • Why sustainability is no longer a buzzword—it’s a business imperative
  • The three major environmental challenges your projects must help solve
  • How companies are moving from compliance checklists to competitive advantage
  • What every PM needs to ask to future-proof their projects
  • How Brittany’s real-world experience as a Sustainability PMO reshaped her entire view of project success

Whether you're new to sustainability or leading ESG initiatives, this episode will challenge how you plan, build, and deliver value.

🛠️ Sustainability isn’t optional—it’s operational.
