The 21st century challenge for your organisation
“Companies that don’t adapt [to a zero carbon economy] will go bankrupt without question,” says Mark Carney, Bank of England Governor.
Organisations that put sustainability and CSR at the heart of what they do, will be the standout leaders of the 21st century and will survive and thrive. Making a positive impact has been shown to attract and retain better talent (especially for Millennials and Gen Z), boosting engagement, productivity and happiness at work.

This programme is good for organisations who want to:
|
● make more of a difference
● ask what's possible ● think about circles of influence and control ● involve staff in generating practical ideas ● increase productivity, reduce waste and costs |
● rethink the bigger picture of people, planet, profit
● help teams concerned about environmental impact ● be inspired by positive success stories ● reduce their carbon footprint ● bring more CSR into strategy and operations |
How does it work?
Drawing inspiration and learning from nature’s ecosystems we've designed this programme to help you look at how you can be more sustainable and socially responsible.
Starting with activities and exercises that bring everyone together and lower barriers (to boost connection), with stories and reflection that get people thinking about the way you work, after a shared lunch we create the space for collaborative creative thinking on a deeper level in order to generate rich and practical insights and ideas from your whole team.
You'll leave with an action plan for continuing the process in your workplace.

The benefits of bringing your team into the wild
People who are more connected with nature and who spend more time outdoors, become more environmentally responsible, more concerned, and also happier in their interpersonal relationships. Time in nature really does boost everyone's creative thinking, and improves trust and social cohesion between colleagues.
