Online webinar - How to make your job your most powerful climate tool

In our collective response to the climate emergency, one part of the economy plays an outsized role: companies. Environmentalist Paul Hawken said:

“Business is the only mechanism on the planet today powerful enough to produce the changes necessary.”

And companies have certainly started to realise this and get on-board. Sustainability teams are expanding, and they are doing truly amazing work. There are announcements, net zero targets, plans are being put in place.

But so far, it’s too little, too slow. Because what is needed is nothing short of a far-reaching transformation.

How does change happen at a company? Just like with any other change inside a system, it starts with people. Employees. Employees - not just those in sustainability but the whole workforce - may very well hold the key to the transformation of the private sector.

In this webinar, we will explore how people - employees - can transform their organisations from the inside (and why they should).

This webinar is for you if:

• Your attitude towards the climate crisis is best described as concerned, alert or alarmed
• You are employed in the private sector, aka you work at a company
• You have a belief (or an intuition) that your company has not yet fully aligned itself to global climate goals ; there is work to do.
• You can imagine yourself playing a role in the transformation of your company - or maybe you already are.
• You could do with some support in figuring out what to do or your next steps

In this webinar, we will cover:

• The role of companies in the climate emergency
• The role of employees in taking companies response to the next level
• A climate intrapreneur: what it is and how to know if you’re one of them
• Real-life examples of employees working to influence change from the inside.

Whatever your sector, seniority or role (and especially if your role isn’t sustainability related!) we think there is an opportunity for you to contribute. Come along to find out more!
