When Human Resources has a “seat at the sustainability table”, every function connects to the organization’s sustainability strategy.   GTA has designed a four-quadrant model, A Sustainable Workplace Framework, as a partnership between your sustainability office and key HR leaders.

We perform a diagnostic alignment service for 40 HR capabilities within the four quadrants of Innovation and Development, Growth Path and Business Direction, Outreach, Reputation, Credibility and Cost Reduction & Risk Mitigation.

We inspire your plans for workforce, culture, leadership, employee engagement, talent acquisition and development.  HR leaders have an imperative to lift off a plan where each employee has competency, accountability, and responsibility in a company with a culture of sustainability.

We’ll engage HR with common practices, workforce trends, and challenges as the key business activities demand HR’s actions.

GTA helps you fully discover the relationship between a sustainability office and HR, as strategic business partners as you explore GTA’s Human Resources’ Sustainable Workplace Framework Model below.

Your Needs

Sustainable organizations are broadly defined to mean that they balance their business strategy with people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnerships using a systemic approach, focused on short and long-term goals within and around its eco-system. Every company can contribute to building a sustainable future for itself, its people, its customers, community, our country and more.

Now, many years later, we offer green and sustainability training and HR solutions and much more, as reflected in our popular learning solutions and employee-centric experiences.
