The Business Case for WELL - Sponsored by Charlotte Young Leaders

When:  Mar 21, 2018 from 05:30 PM to 07:00 PM (ET)
Associated with  Carolinas

Join us to hear Carlie Bullock-Jones, LEED Fellow, WELL AP, and the founder and managing Principal of Ecoworks Studio, discuss building a business case around WELL. Our built environment can shape our habits, choices, regulate our sleep, drive us toward healthy and unhealthy choices and passively influence our health through the quality of our surroundings. WELL is a performance-based system for measuring, certifying, and monitoring features of the built environment that impact human health and wellbeing. This presentation will introduce the purpose, key components and structure of the WELL Building Standard, while highlighting “crosswalks” with LEED. Join the movement to advance buildings that help people work, live, perform and feel their best. This event is approved for 1 AIA and 1 GBCI CE credits.
