The first phase is the diagnosis phase answers the why to engage in a sustainability coaching experience from an organizational perspective. This is the discovery phase when we probe what sustainability means for the organization and why it is strategically important. At the end of this phase you and your organization a clear picture of your readiness level at the moment to undertake the coaching experience. 

The coaching experience will be tailored according to your measured readiness level. Some organizations at the entry-level will require more education and awareness creation around their sustainability capacity, while more advanced customers will need more coaching in the execution of a sustainability plan and report. For more advanced coaching, consider adopting the Global Reporting Initiative Standards (GRI https://www.globalreporting.org), the world’s most widely used sustainability reporting standards in your sustainability report.

The second phase answers the what and it audits the customer’s social, environmental and governance practices in order to establish a present sustainability benchmark. These audits will help the organization establish achievable KPIs in its main social, environmental and governance impacts. Once the benchmark has been established, what follows is the organization’s sustainability report which is a document that informs the internal and external public about the organization’s progress in achieving its sustainability goals. A public sustainability report will increase your brand loyalty amongst your employees, your clients and your community. You will also join thousands of businesses worldwide that have made sustainability a top strategic focus for their organization, staying ahead of the curve of regulation, employee and marketplace demands.

Whether you are a single individual or a small or medium-sized family business, a mission-driven for-profit organization, or a community-based organization, we can coach you on how to become a more sustainable individual or organization.
