Purpose 360 with Carol Cone

NRG Powers Purpose


Listen Later

Every time we switch on a light, we make an impact on the environment. While most of us have limited choice in our energy providers, NRG’s 3.7 million customers can feel good about the company powering their lives.
 
NRG is a publicly-held energy company with a purpose to bring the power of energy to people and organizations. The company’s social impact platform, positiveNRG, engages employees, communities, and nonprofit organizations around NRG’s purpose, to drive impact at home and around the world. Purpose 360 welcomed Jennifer Brunelle, Head of Charitable Giving at NRG, to share the company’s purpose journey.
 
Listen for Jennifer’s insights on: 

  • How purpose guides NRG in transforming the energy sector through a radically customer-focused approach
  • How positiveNRG engages and empowers employees at all levels of the organization to mobilize them in their home communities
  • The evolution of charitable giving, and how purpose allows NRG to up-level giving efforts strategically to be more impactful
