Walter Robb's Blog

On April 3, 2012, Walter Robb spoke about doing good in a global marketplace in a public talk at Washington State University. He discussed "Toward a More Sustainable View of Business: A Retailer's Perspective;" the event was sponsored by the WSU College of Agricultural, Human and Natural Resource Sciences.

On January 16, Walter Robb joined Kip Tindell, CEO of The Container Store, and Jonathon Sokoloff, Managing Partner of Leonard Green & Partners, to give a presentation on Conscious Capitalism at the National Retail Federation Conference. The three discussed this emerging business movement and discussed how they believe profits come from properly balancing the needs of all stakeholders — employees, suppliers, customers, community and investors.
