🌍 Embracing the Power of Business for Good 🌱  I had the pleasure of delving into Arnaud Victor BALOU-TCHICHELLE’s insightful article, “Business Development for Communities - Social and Environmental Responsibility,” featured in the #December issue of #IGC #Magazine. 📖  Arnaud’s perspective on leveraging business development as a force for positive change is nothing short of inspiring. The article delves into the intersection of corporate initiatives with social and environmental responsibility, showcasing the immense impact businesses can have on communities. 💡 Tchichelle’s work is a call to action for companies to not only thrive economically but also contribute meaningfully to the well-being of the communities they serve. It’s a testament to the idea that success is not just measured in profits but in the positive footprint left behind. 🌐 As we navigate a rapidly changing business landscape, Arnaud’s insights are a compass guiding us towards a more sustainable and responsible future. I highly recommend checking out the December issue of IGC Magazine to explore this paradigm-shifting perspective. 💥Click here to read full article -https://lnkd.in/efRmhrG7 #BusinessDevelopment #SocialResponsibility #EnvironmentalResponsibility #CommunityImpact #SustainableBusiness #IGCMagazine #ArnaudBalouTchichelle #Leadership #hotels #airlines #ChangeMakers #IshkamaGlobalChange #g100 #wef #unitednations #unengland #houseofcommons #houseoflords #bbc #media #IshkamaGlobalChange #socialmedia #SocialJustice #eventplanning #CommunityEngagement #Sustainability #EnvironmentalJustice #Empowerment #EqualityForAll #VolunteerForChange #PositiveChange #TogetherWeCan #MakeADifference #Activism #GlobalAwareness #Advocacy #EmpowerCommunities #YouthLeadership #Inclusion #CivicEngagement #britishairways

This year’s Social Impact Summit in Sydney is fast approaching. I’ll be part of the second session on day 1 of the conference, in the Profit & Purpose stream, a panel on Social Employment and Procurement: Unpacking theory into practice. If you’ve ever wanted to know more about shared value, social employment and community impact, this session is for you.   Alongside our friends and partners Kate Graham from Gippsland Women's Health, and Nicholas S. from Corio Generation, we’ll explore what’s being done to create an environment where women’s employment needs can be addressed ahead of impending new infrastructure projects in regional areas. This session will also highlight the impact of shared value – when organisations work together with experts close to the problem they want to solve, zero-in and go deeper, while thinking about the long-term impact of their solution that will create a benefit for both the business and the community. The lessons shared will be applicable to diverse cohorts across regions too.    Looking forward to seeing, sharing and learning with you all there.

Some argue that the greatest challenge for companies in their journey to become more sustainable, or even regenerative, is to include the interests of stakeholders in their decisionmaking. Especially if you take the interest of often overlooked stakeholders into account, ie nature and future generations. During a 45 minute panel with Nicolette Loonen from TOSCA, Prof. Subramanian Rangan from INSEAD, moderated by prof Jan Willem Stoelhorst discuss the trends in stakeholder inclusion, and some options for boards. Nicolette Loonen makes a plea for a Stakeholder Council, to be included in the governance of organizations. We are curious to hear your thoughts on the pro's and con's of such a governance model, and also are keen on best practices of companies who are already working with a stakeholder council.

On International Women’s Day, please join a virtual information-sharing session on Transforming Care Systems in the Context of the Sustainable Development Goals and Our Common Agenda. Friday, March 8, from 8:00 to 09:00 ET. Register via this link: https://bitly.ws/3etwg A personal perspective: Health systems should focus on women's mental health due to their higher susceptibility to disorders like depression and anxiety, which severely affect life quality. (Depression,” WHO, 2021)) Women face specific challenges, including gender-based violence and caregiving burdens, necessitating targeted mental health support. (UN Women) Untreated mental health issues can harm women, their families, and communities, influencing child development and family stability. Prioritizing women's mental health supports gender equality and empowerment, enabling their full societal participation (The Lancet psychiatrist). This focus is crucial for social justice and economic efficiency, as it improves health outcomes, boosts productivity, and lowers healthcare costs (McKinsey Global Institute; World Bank). #womeninternationalday #womeninbusiness #womenleaders #womenhealth
