Building a Business Case for Biking Investments
Bicycling is good for the bottom line. Hear from the ranks of executives, HR personnel and building managers how encouraging bicycling has become part of doing business in Portland. Walk away with tools and actions to make your workplace more bike-friendly.
Low Car Commute Benefits
There’s more to commute benefits than bike parking or a free TriMet pass. What benefits haven’t you considered? How can you sell them to your colleagues? Three employers of different sizes will explain how they’ve used holistic commute programs to build company-wide support for every sort of low-car commuting, sometimes at little cost.
The Bike Commute Challenge and Beyond: Getting Coworkers Fired-Up about Biking
You don’t have to reinvent the wheel to get your coworkers excited about biking. The BTA’s Bike Commute Challenge and existing organized team rides provide great opportunities for both team-building and making bicycling part of your workplace’s culture and identity. Leave this workshop empowered with fun ideas, a great list of resources, and success stories you can use at your workplace whatever your position or budget.
Building a Bike Commuting Team Inside Your Company
Form an in-house bike commuter team among company employees to promote bike commuting, advocate for improved bike facilities, and educate colleagues on key aspects of bike commuting.
