POV: You find the dream job, but the Company has little real interest in sustainability or in helping the climate crisis. Do you turn a blind eye, or go work elsewhere? As an Executive Career Coach and HR Director, I've seen firsthand the positive impact of integrating sustainability practices into company culture...with increasing numbers of candidates turning down job offers because of poor sustainable practices or ethos 🌱 Infact, according to a recent WWF survey, 62% of millennials surveyed want to work for an organisation that makes a positive impact on the planet. But of course it's not just millennials, as more and more people want to know what companies are doing to help the climate crisis. For many people, sustainable initiatives are an essential component of engagement at work.
