Employees and Kimptom's Earth Care Program

One of my student teams presented on the Kimpton Earth Care case published in Weber and Lawrence's book Business and Society. As part of their presentation, they played this video. What struck me about the video in relation to my blog are the number of initiatives that came from employee suggestions rather than top-down programs. By their nature, employee suggestions are organic and often informal. At the same time, organizations need some sort of structure to capture, evaluate, and potentially act on suggestions from employees. I am not sure I know of any exemplary models of this.
