  • Transforming your business to become more sustainable can feel overwhelming! It touches upon so many areas from carbon reduction & supply chains, to DEI & and transparent governace.

    My top tip is to start small by just positively changing just 1 thing in your business. See how this process feels and how it engages your team.

    Shifting to sustainable business is an ongoing process, not something that is done overnight, or has an end point.

    So by starting with one thing, you can see how the journey feels and celebrate the destination.

    When you're ready, do it again with something else!
