How can you bring people together to work toward a sustainable world?

Engaging all levels of an organization on sustainability is a recurring challenge. As I tried to write an article addressing this issue, I got stuck. Really stuck. A complete blank. Nothing. Why? Simply because it seems impossible to tackle this intractable problem all at once. There are so many aspects to consider, such as:

• Your mindset—What are your views on the people you want to attract? Are they people you need to “educate”? Are they threats you want to mitigate? Or are they important influencers from whom you expect support?

• Your legitimacy—What role will you choose on this journey? Will you be a passenger or a driver? How will you exercise your leadership? 

• Your target audience—Do you want to reach top-level executives, middle management, or operational staff? Beyond your immediate circle of influence, who should your ecosystem partners be? 

• Your influence—How do you plan to persuade the diverse group of people with different personalities and backgrounds that you will interact with? 

• Your strategy - What is your main goal? How will you engage people? What tactics could you use to achieve this? 

To convey a concise and more dynamic message, I'll write a series of short articles (about 2 minutes each) on the topic.

Since our actions are largely determined by our thoughts, I’ll start with the topic of mindset! Take a look at the first chapter, “Your mindset can expand your sphere of influence.”

How can you bring people together to work toward a sustainable world?

As I tried to write an article addressing this concern, I hit a wall. I was really stuck. A complete blank. Nada. Why? Simply because it seems impossible to tackle this issue all at once.

There are so many factors to consider, such as:

• Your mindset— What do you think of the people you want to attract? Are they people you need to “educate”? Are they threats you want to neutralize? Or are they influencers whose support you’re counting on?

• Your Legitimacy —What role will you choose on this journey? Will you be a passenger or a driver? How will you exercise your leadership?

• Your Target Audience —Do you want to reach the executive committee, middle management, or front-line staff? Beyond your immediate circle of influence, what is your ecosystem? Who are your partners?

• Your Influence— How do you plan to persuade the diverse range of individuals and roles you will be interacting with?

• Your Strategy - What is your main goal? How do you want to engage people? What tactics could you use to achieve this? What specific actions will you take?

To convey a concise and more engaging message, I will write a series of short articles on the topic. 

Since our actions depend mainly on our thoughts, I'll start with the topic of mindset. Take a look at the first chapter, " Your Mindset Can Expand Your Sphere of Influence."
