MARTA's Sustainability Department is committed to creating a positive impact in the community through various initiatives, including promoting sustainability within transit and hosting community engagement events and educational programs. The Undergraduate Business Student Leadership Conference (UBSLC) in February 2024, held at Emory University’s Goizueta Business School, brought together students from diverse backgrounds to explore innovative ideas for increasing ridership, with a focus on sustainability within MARTA. The conference's theme, "Sustainable YOU for a Sustainable Future," emphasized the vital need for sustainable practices in our everyday lives. This spring, MARTA collaborated with the Global Growers Network (GGN) to host a community engagement event at the Indian Creek Station celebrating Earth Week.

Supporting Leaders & Organisations in Fostering Workplaces with Purpose, Positive Cultures & Unparalleled Synergy. Founder of Breaking Through Coaching | EMCC Accredited Coach | Hypnotherapist
Happy Earth Day! 🌍 Today I had some thoughtful and inspiring conversations with a couple of amazing leaders at BOSENCE FARM COMMUNITY LIMITED, Kate Prosser and Samantha Collins . This has led me, yet again, to draw upon the meaningful parallel between Earth Day's spirit of ecological awareness and our approaches to systemic team coaching, systemic leadership coaching and community support. Before I continue though I'd invite you to look further into the work of Bosence Farm and what they are doing, just amazing! So just as Earth Day urges us to consider our planet in every action we take, systemic coaching encourages teams to broaden their perspectives, not just to enhance performance but to weave ecological and sustainable thinking into the fabric of their daily work. This approach doesn't merely push for incremental changes; it fosters a transformative shift in how teams perceive their roles within and beyond the corporate sphere. By embedding ecological consciousness into our leadership styles, we nurture an environment where teams feel empowered to explore innovative solutions that benefit their communities, the planet and of course themselves. So to continue to elevate our impact let's asking ourselves and our teams this: What specific sustainability practices could we integrate into our daily workflows to make our team's impact on the environment more positive? And how would that contribute positively to our planet? 🌿 Let's share ideas and inspire each other to think and act more broadly! What do you already do? Please share in the comments.

"Ultimately, steward leadership is a choice driven by intentionality. You can make excuses, or you can follow the lead of companies like Patagonia, Tata Group, and Faber-Castell Group, which have embraced sustainability and society-first strategies from the get-go and found profitable solutions to humanity's most pressing challenges." Our CEO, Rajeev Peshawaria, recently appeared on CNA with Cheryl Goh and Wui Lynn Chew to discuss the disconnect between boardroom promises and their actual practices. Rajeev shared the inspiration behind his commitment to sustainability and leadership, and explained the motivations behind his book, Sustainable Sustainability. He also addressed why existing ESG frameworks often result in greenwashing and superficial compliance, arguing that an upgrade to ESL—Steward Leadership—is crucial. By adopting Steward Leadership principles, he emphasised how organizations can create a win-win-win future for all stakeholders, society and future generations and the environment, driving meaningful and impactful change.
