Upcoming Member Meetings


Upcoming Virtual Meetings

CEF Member meetings are driven entirely by your priorities and ideas.  We stand ready to drive dialogue, support peer-to-peer learning, and spur collaborations to accelerate solutions on the topics you care most about. Please email Director of Programming, Margaret Zamoyta, or reach out to anyone on our team anytime with needs, questions, ideas for member dialogues—or simply to brainstorm ways in which we might be able to help you advance your objectives.


CEF virtual events adhere to the Chatham House Rule of non-attribution, unless stated otherwise. Each session is carefully curated for executives from CEF member companies to engage with peers that specifically work on, or have knowledge of, the topic being discussed. Sessions are designed to foster open dialogue, driven by active participation and a shared commitment to progress. To preserve CEF's distinctive culture of trust, openness and camaraderie, we appreciate your thoughtful consideration of the most appropriate colleague to engage in each meeting, and that you kindly avoid distributing invitations widely within the organization.

CSO Huddle: Navigating Politics when the Tectonic Plates Shift: C-Suite Changes, Board Shake-Ups and Major M&As

Tuesday, May 19, 2026, 11:30 AM –12:55 PM Eastern (8:30 AM Pacific)   


In the last few years, CEO changes, Board shake-ups, and major mergers & acquisitions have prompted many of you to change tack in your strategic approach, focusing on change management and transformation in new ways. Join your peers to discuss the opportunities, challenges, and long-term effects of leading through these transitions—and how to sustain momentum as the ground keeps shifting.


This CSO Hudle meeting series is non-transferable and intended to provide a neutral space for executives with the title or rank of top sustainability or environmental executive within each CEF member company to candidly discuss current or forthcoming strategic business opportunities and challenges. With this convening, CEF aims to help executives proactively “get on the balcony” with peers to discuss the big-picture issues that will enable them to look around the corner and prepare more effectively, leading continued evolution in the sustainability space.

CEF Annual Leaders Retreat - Tamaya Resort, just north of Albuquerque, NM

June 15 - 18, 2026

The CEF Retreat is an invitation-only, not-for-attribution meeting limited to a select number of executives from CEF’s diverse membership, designed to inspire breakthrough thinking, deepen

trusted relationships, and generate actionable insights to accelerate sustainable business problem-solving and innovation. The executive sponsor from each member company determines whom to invite from within their organization. Each CEF member company’s delegation may include up to 3 senior executives. At their discretion, sponsors may wish to invite a younger, high-potential “rising star” to join the delegation. Contact Executive Director, Amy O’Meara, with ideas or to learn more.
