Green Streets Alignment with Workplace Priorities

Green Streets hopes to schedule a planning meeting with new coordinators to better understand your organization's commuting culture and how the Challenge supports (or could support) existing transportation, sustainability and wellness initiatives.

FIRST STEPS

1. To help us better understand your workplace priorities and commuters, please take a few minutes to fill out this Survey.
2. Fill out your Goal sheet (see section below), and share with us.
3. Draft your in-house plan, including your Challenge calendar and offerings (see more info below).
4. Schedule a meeting with Green Streets staff to discuss your goals with the Challenge and set up a time for us to jointly table with you at your workplace.

Your Goals for the Challenge

Please copy or download and fill out the Goal sheet shown below, and email or share it with us. Having specific goals will allow you to monitor how you are doing throughout the Challenge using our Challenge Leaderboard and your private Coordinator Dashboard. (We will send you a unique url to access your private dashboard).

Draft in-house plan: Your Challenge calendar and workplace offerings

In addition to Green Streets rewards, what, if anything, might your workplace offer as extra incentives to staff for logging a commute?

These incentives need not cost much or anything (e.g. lunch with the CEO), and can be inspiring and lots of fun. If everyone in your workplace already commutes car-free, take it to the next level and give them an extra challenge, as Miller Dyer Spears' coordinator Beth Eisenhower did in 2018. Invite people to submit commuting videos, pictures, or stories of themselves or colleagues.

What other in-house departments or even outside groups might like to host a Walk/Ride Day event or table for your staff. Use Walk/Ride Days and the Challenge to share information and engage staff around other environmental, health, community, or financial issues.

Align your internal calendar to the commuter challenge calendar, available here.
