Peer-to-Peer Benchmarking

Our Corporate Affiliate Program benefits companies seeking to benchmark the business value from improved materials, energy, governance, financial risk, sustainability, and environmental performance. Through this corporate benchmarking exchange, we assist executives in making the business case before key stakeholders and the internal leadership councils you brief.

How do we do this?

Members, now involving over 35 multinational firms, participate in networking and strategy sessions that we host at least twice a year. Each workshop focuses on business management strategy, with detailed case presentations by leading executives from our Corporate Affiliate member companies.

Think of these exchanges as a multi-year alumni association, created for you and your organization, that has now involved over 192 established leaders since 1990. We meet in sets of 40–60 leaders for 4-hour sessions per workshop. We purposely keep the audience to a more intimate number than most conferences to allow for an open dialogue. Also, upon your attaining full membership, we network you with the firms that you need to benchmark with in private sessions.

Congratulations on what I thought was the best of your conferences I have attended. I believe the quality of presentation and presenters was remarkable. Your affiliates are getting their money's worth.

Congratulations on the organisation of your conference and bringing together a diverse range of outstanding participants. I found it a useful experience in a number of areas — in particular, Tom Chappell's (Tom's of Maine) presentation was a highlight.

One of few workshops or conferences that I have been to that I did not feel like I was being sold to, even though I'm in the selling business.

I met many interesting people and learned a tremendous amount in a very short time.

Ed Henderson

Congratulations on an impressive and successful conference — but of course, you've been accomplishing these little miracles for a long time. I found the presentations most interesting and informative, and the participants were top-drawer. Many thanks to your able staff.

I was very inspired by what I was hearing. I find myself in those kinds of meetings agreeing with the concepts and wishing that I live in a world where that concept is reality. My responsibility on the job is to try to understand what keeps us from getting to that reality, and finding ways to help my company overcome the critical barriers and move closer to the concept. The AHC meetings are great and stimulating, but the greatest value comes from the ideas that we can take back to our office and begin to implement in making positive changes.

I enjoyed the AHC Corporate Affiliates Event. The topics were interesting, speakers were good, and it was an interesting mix of organizations represented.

Dear Bruce and Mel:

I wanted to take a moment to thank you both for the outstanding job both of you did in setting up and conducting last week's Renewable Energy and Corporate Strategy workshop. The quality of the speakers was excellent and the conversations on the side were stimulating, productive, and ripe with opportunity. It was exciting to hear some of the best-run companies in America talk about how they are leading energy efficiency and sustainability initiatives in the corporate community. It was even more exciting to speak privately with the individuals who lead those initiatives. Those conversations affirmed opportunities for companies like Sterling Planet and Hunt Power!

Bruce, congratulations on taking your conference formula and successfully applying it to the energy business. Mel, thank you for stepping up and sponsoring this great event. Thanks also for dinner on Thursday night. Finally, thanks to both of you for inviting me to be a part of this.

Personal regards,
Hugh Baker
President
Hunt Power, LP
