The Bliss Group was delighted to co-host the Women in Cleantech & Sustainability NYC Chapter’s first event last night. Our Impact practice co-lead and WCS co-chair emily porro was joined by Rachel Taplinger (Head of Sustainability at L'Oréal), Tiya Gordon (Founder of itselectric), Stephanie Stahl (Senior Advisor at Boston Consulting Group (BCG)), Lisa Chamberlain (Communications Lead and Urban Strategist at Centre for Urban Transformation), Angela Oberg (Chief Climate Officer at Rutgers University), and Krystal Persaud (Climate Entrepreneur featured on Shark Tank) to discuss the challenges women in the industry face and advice for those considering a career in sustainability.    Here are our most important takeaways from the speakers: - Every job can be a sustainability position. There are solutions and changes that can be made at every level so don't let your title or budget hold you back. - Viewing challenges through a multidimensional lens helps you understand how to pivot quickly and problem solve. This is a valuable skill that can jumpstart your path upwards as you take a more active role. - The individuals who work in the sustainability industry are often passionate and driven, but burnout is real. Finding a group of supportive women who understand what you are experiencing and learning how to set boundaries are essential. We're honored to have been able to gather inspiring leaders to share their experiences and wisdom with us. Stay tuned for additional panels and networking opportunities at Bliss!   #TheBlissGrp #WCS #networkingevent #womeninsustainability
