Taking Time To Recognize A FedEx Blogger - Mitch Jackson

Earlier this month Ethisphere named FedEx Citizenship blogger Mitch Jackson to its 2009 list of 100 Most Influential People in Business Ethics. 

Mitch was recognized in the Business Leadership category and ranked number 27 out of 100. Ethisphere called out his leadership and direction to help FedEx meet “new sustainability initiatives include cutting emissions by 20 percent by 2020 and improving fuel economy of its vehicles by 20 percent by the same time.”  In addition, Ethisphere noted the FedEx Citizenship blog as way to learn more about FedEx corporate responsibility initiatives.

With the busy holiday shipping season behind us, we at the FedEx Citizenship blog wanted to take the time to give a big “BZ!” to Mitch on his prestigious recognition.
