Terrence Robinson is a newly hired associate engineer at Cascade Engineering.  His role is to provide estimates for new products and programs as well as for customer-specific orders or modifications to current projects. In his position, Terrence played a key liaison role among the sales, engineering, and manufacturing teams.  During the first town hall meeting since being hired, Terrence heard Cascade Engineerings president, Mark Miller, discuss the companys financial results, and executive vice president Kenyatta Brame discuss its social programs and B Corporation certification. Almost every slide, regardless of topic, displayed the triple bottom line of people, profit, and planet.  Terrence was inspired and recalled a TedX talk that discussed the WaterWheel, a device that could provide access to clean water in the developing world.
