Overview
In Session 4, Road to Change, we learn about conducting a transformational dialog: how you can help people to see a new perspective. Creating an action plan within your organization is an opportunity to conduct a transformational dialog about climate and environmental action and how they can move from a burden to an opportunity. A successful CEO explains effective approaches to change-making and how to create “human magic” with a transformative, inclusive purpose. You will also learn about the psychology of change.
You will learn how to conduct a preliminary audit and review of your organization’s climate action opportunities. You will also learn about approaches to measuring performance on climate initiatives.
Big Opportunities
-
Organizational transformation begins with setting/finding a purpose that the stakeholders support – a noble purpose that unleashes “human magic.”
-
People go through a well-understood process to transform their thinking and understanding. Knowing this process helps guide your discussions and discovery process with colleagues.
-
An action plan should be based on opportunities to improve sustainability and a careful review of Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 (direct, purchased energy, and supply chain and customer use) emissions.
-
Properly measuring progress on your plans’ goals will improve performance.
-
Plans that only meet minimum emissions and environmental standards are risky and offer little reward.
