Yesterday I highlighted the importance of switching power companies for soloists... it's also a great move for companies.
But companies typically have something that soloists don't: other people.
On top of the low-hanging fruit in yesterday's email, which you and your leadership team can opt to do immediately, a step that is highly recommended for employee-rich companies is asking your team what changes they'd love to see.
Adding a climate agenda where there previously wasn't one can be a huge cultural shift. It can boost an individual's desire to invest emotionally in the company. It might also push them away.
A communication could look something like this:
"This year, (our company name) is cementing it's commitment to removing harm and creating positive impact on the climate, and we want to hear your ideas. Would you like us to contribute to more community issues, or become certified in a particular area? Is there a project you'd like to work on, or lead? What should we remove from our operations? Let's build a roadmap as a company, and execute it together."
The replies might surprise you, and they'll almost certainly raise items you won't think of alone in a closed office.
Step one for companies: Invite your team to play along.
