Make change happen

Speaker: 00:00:01

If you're leading on sustainability

in your organization, what's the

2

: 00:00:04

fundamental challenge that you're facing.

3

: 00:00:07

The big question that sustainability

leaders we work with often ask is this.

4

: 00:00:11

How can I get more colleagues supporting

sustainability and not just paying

5

: 00:00:16

lip service to the idea, but actively

getting involved in making change happen.

6

: 00:00:21

most sustainability leaders.

7

: 00:00:23

Focus on building more persuasive

arguments instead of building

8

: 00:00:26

more effective relationships.

9

: 00:00:28

And this is a problem.

10

: 00:00:29

Even though they may not talk about it.

11

: 00:00:31

Research shows that four out of

five people are concerned about

12

: 00:00:34

the climate and nature crisis,

and they do want to take action.

13

: 00:00:38

If only they felt able to.

14

: 00:00:39

But stronger arguments.

15

: 00:00:40

Don't make your colleagues

feel more able to act.

16

: 00:00:43

More effective relationships.

17

: 00:00:45

Do.

18

: 00:00:45

When you connect with colleagues

over what really matters to them.

19

: 00:00:49

You can grow your network of active

allies and work together better.

20

: 00:00:53

And that's exactly what you

need to make change happen.
