In 2015 UN Member States set a deadline of 2030 to achieve gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls. At the speed we are going, it will take 286 years. “When we look at the world, what we need from our leaders is changing. Things like climate change, the cost-of-living crisis, the pandemic and the fallout from all of that, means we need a different type of leadership if we want to create a different type of world. What got us here isn't going to get us to the future.” In this edition of In Good Company, Louisa Rodriguez talks to Dan about what it means to be a UN Women Delegate in 2023, who her female role models are and the importance of having a creative outlet.

Doing business is becoming increasingly complex, with ever-changing societal and environmental issues that require our attention, in order for organisations to continue to thrive sustainably.

Sustainable innovation is about creating and integrating new business strategies, products, and services that accelerate positive social change and protect and preserve environmental integrity, whilst enhancing business performance. It is a process through which environmental, social and financial considerations are integrated into company systems, from idea generation through to research and development and commercialisation.

In this episode, Impact's Scott Rose is joined by Ryan Hamilton, Chief of Staff for the Environmental Defense Fund, to discuss how change can be influenced within our organisations.

It’s a common misconception that leaders and managers are different roles, but in human-centered organisations, leaders and managers operate on the same continuum, defined less by their job title than the work that they do. Because leadership isn’t a character trait or a job title; it’s a special and particular form of action that anyone can take, at any time.

Join Impact’s Grahame Broadbelt and Jo Appleby as they discuss human-centered leadership and management. 

Education, careers, opportunities, mental health, injustices, leadership action. This episode features the fascinating journey of Cynthia Adebiyi-Yekinni from the UN Global Compact UK. Cynthia joins Impact's Jo Appleby to share her story.

Do you take the time for reflection? What's the best way for you to reflect? Join Dan as he looks back on the first series of the In Good Company podcast, sharing his highlights and learnings. 

Every organisation has had to embrace the digital world in some way. Here's our story about how we've done just that. 

Is your team a high performing team? What does your team need in order to achieve its purpose?

Impact's Team Performance Inventory (TPI) is an assessment tool which helps a team see its performance clearly. Using the 6 domains of our trademarked Team Performance Model, we can help you equip your teams and their leaders with the tools, mindsets, self-knowledge and reflective capacity to build teams that are a joy to work in and that will boost the productivity of your organisation.

It works. And if your teams work, so does your organisation.

It's no secret that COVID-19 has brought many challenges to our working world. With the increase of remote working, leadership is being tested. What can we do to stay more connected? What can we learn from this experience? Scott and Sue join Dan to share their experience and best practices.
