World Resources Institute scales global impact and saves 1,000+ work days annually with Asana

World Resources Institute (WRI) needed a better way to manage complex global initiatives across disconnected tools, inconsistent workflows, and fragmented risk tracking. With work spread across teams and regions, the organization struggled with duplicate efforts, limited visibility, unclear ownership, and difficulty aligning projects to strategic goals. WRI chose Asana to help centralize project management and improve collaboration across its global network.

Asana implemented a centralized work system for WRI, using templates, automations, dashboards, portfolios, Goals, and integrations to standardize workflows, improve reporting, and strengthen risk management. The results included 8,055 hours saved in 2023, more than 2,000 employees aligned across 60+ teams, 343,648 cross-functional collaborations, and standardized enterprise risk management across 20+ teams globally.
