Sustainability isn’t driven through volunteering days, one-size approaches, and top-down mandates!But by bringing social impact into people’s day-to-day roles, giving people the right skills, and empowering them from the bottom-up.

Liv Sibony joins us to explain how we shift from the former to the latter in this episode.

Expect to learn how you zoom out to get more context, using that to make better decisions, how to imagine a more hopeful future, how to build a top-down and bottom-up approach, and more.
