Danielle Jezienicki, Director of Corporate Social Responsibility at Williams-Sonoma, Inc. works across the company’s eight brands, including Williams-Sonoma Home, Pottery Barn Kids and PBTeen, west elm, Rejuvenation and Mark & Graham, to ensure that products are made with the environment in mind. I recently spoke with Danielle, an EDF Climate Corps alumna, to learn how Williams-Sonoma, Inc. works with stakeholders – from customers, employees and vendors – to engrain sustainability into its values. Rather than housing sustainability separately as a silo within the organization, it's integrated in Williams-Sonoma, Inc.’s sourcing team, not to mention values and corporate mission. How are customers influencing sustainability at Williams-Sonoma? How does Williams-Sonoma incorporate sustainability throughout its entire supply chain?
