Paul Smith (Premium Author) - Click Here To Read Paul's Articles - I help forge truly sustainable businesses
at GreenSmith Consulting. I bring to the
table a wide range of skills and
knowledge, an have an extensive network of
resources to further extend the scope of
what we offer, as needed. For both
existing companies wanting to push the
needle greener, and startups needing help
effectively and authentically getting the
message out and navigating the operational
and strategic considerations involved, we
can help.
Getting an MBA in Sustainable Management
from Presidio considerably strengthened my
green business skills, helping make me
attuned to how to do business in a way
that's more profitable, well managed, and
ecologically sound. I see possibilities
where others don't. I make connections
that others haven't yet. I help people to
see them, and know how to best take
advantage of them.
My overarching talent is "bottom lining"
complex ideas, in a way that is
understandable and accessible to a variety
of audiences, internal and external to a
company. After all, if you have the
greatest idea/product/service ever, and
your employees or customers don't see the
relevance to them, it doesn't really
matter, does it?

Manager, GreenBusiness WORKS
In September 2001, Stephanie refocused
the direction of her marketing
communications agency, (The) Communication
Works, to assist nonprofits in recovering
from the aftereffects of 911. The agency
began to work on meetings and events
executing fundraising and development
campaigns for Georgia Ovarian Cancer
Alliance, Athletes for a Better World,
Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation,
Keep Atlanta Beautiful, and others.
During her work with Keep Atlanta
Beautiful, Stephanie learned about Mayor
Franklin's initiatives for the greening of
Atlanta and was inspired to do her part in
making Atlanta the Green Capital of the
South. As a result, Stephanie founded
GreenBusiness WorksTM.
"Going Green is important to me because
of my increasing awareness of climate
change and the effect of greenhouse gases
on our environment. Concerned, I began
looking at the choices I could make to
reduce my carbon footprint. After making
simple lifestyle changes such as
increasing the use of mass transit,
composting and recycling, I began to
assess my professional life. What changes
could we make in our internal operations
of the company and how could the company
make an impact in the community? With our
experience in the marketing communications
and event production industry for more
than 25 years, it became apparent that we
could add another line of business to the
8 year old company, and thus,
GreenBusiness WorksTM
began."
Stephanie serves on the board of the
Green Chamber of the South and is a
volunteer for the Georgia Chapter of the
United States Green Building Council as
the sponsorship committee chairperson and
liaison for the Emerging Green Builders.
She lives in Ansley Above the Park, a
vertical community in Midtown, Atlanta,
volunteering as co-chair of the AATP Green
Team. She enjoys playing tennis, hiking,
golf, horseback riding, and any activity
with her five nieces, 3 nephews and her
incredibly adorable great-nephew.

I have been an entrepreneur for a number
of years now, my biggest success being the
founder of OpenTable, Inc.
(OpenTable.com). Since OpenTable I have
been focused on early stage company
development, with an emphasis on being
green. My most recent venture the Green
Business Project – Simplifying the
Greening Processing for Businesses at
www.greenbusinessproject.com is an early
stage attempt to centralize the knowledge
of the business community into a tool that
will be beneficial to all businesses that
are trying to move in a greener direction.
It is currently focused on Restaurants
with other verticals to follow (such as
banking, retail, grocery,…). Because any
business is so far from being sustainable,
I didn’t feel it right to make a
certification program. This is a “relative
score” rating system in which businesses
will be able to see how they stack up
against each other, hopefully creating a
competitive environment between them to
accelerate progress.
