Scaling Sustainability Workshop: From Green Teams to the C-Suite
April 27th and 29th, 9—11AM PT | Virtual (Zoom)
Are you wanting to increase your capacity as a leader to scale sustainability across your entire organization? Do you think your organization is ready to emerge as a sustainability leader, but is held back by legacy processes and structures? Feeling called to sustainability leadership is the first and vital step in visualizing the possibilities for your role in organizational transformation. The next step is to understand how you can scale your effectiveness and connections across the organization. This workshop will share evidence-based methodologies for building allies and coalitions, and tactical techniques for hosting more effective sustainability conversations with colleagues.
Research from Dr. Richard Boyatzis and others have proven that despite the best intentions, individuals don’t get very far in a change effort unless they have a group of people to support and to guide them in turn. You will join a group of other emerging sustainability leaders to:
Expand your personal toolkit for scaling sustainability at your organization
Visualize your organization and relationships from a networked perspective
Develop proven techniques for creating allies and internal coalitions
Build your confidence and capacity to guide and lead effective workplace sustainability conversations
IS THIS WORKSHOP FOR ME?
At Solvable, we are convinced that each of us has the potential to bring about the change we want to see in the world. If you are an emerging sustainability leader at your organization who wants to catalyze others to join the sustainability transformation, this workshop is ideal for you. You will be joined by other leaders who seek to:
Help colleagues connect with their values and purpose
Use their organization’s sustainability structures to encourage broader sustainability conversations
Approach sustainability conversations more effectively
Understand how network shapes can be utilized to catalyze widespread culture shifts
Inspire sustainability to be part of everyone’s responsibility at their organization
What should I expect from the experience?
Our virtual workshops are carefully crafted spaces away from the day-to-day grind with the intention of leaving you feeling rejuvenated, reinspired, and better equipped for the challenges and opportunities for your important work ahead. Expect an experiential approach that includes personal embodiment and reflection, 1-1 and small group interactions, and custom tools and exercises to help you scale sustainability within your organization. Optional resources and practices will be provided for further exploration outside of our time spent together.
Quote from our recent workshop
“Spending this time with other sustainability professionals, defining our values and commitments, both personally and professionally was an incredibly enriching experience. Sustainability work can feel lonely, and this has only been amplified during these trying times. The Solvable team did an excellent job creating a sense of community and generating collaboration amongst the participants. This workshop reminded me of why I do the work I do, re-invigorated my enthusiasm, and made me want to look for more ways I can continue to build on this experience.” — Sustainability Lead, Large Canadian Insurance Company
