Thought Leadership
The convergence of climate, technology and socio-economic changes impact everything and everyone, everywhere. The world of even five years ago, was vastly different than today with even more disruptions on the horizon. To thrive in such an uncertain environment, thought-leaders and entrepreneurs are accelerating the sustainability and resiliency of their homes, businesses, and respective communities.
To support this mission-critical need—to advance the sustainability and resiliency of homes, businesses and communities—RSI provides actionable thought leadership insights via an exchange in various forms, including events, workshops, keynotes and publications. The common focus of every RSI format is what’s needed to thrive in an uncertain future – starting today.
This Thought Leadership section provides some of those insights in the form of articles, presentations and books – developed by RSI and our affiliates.
