Our Relationship with Sustainability: the biggest blocker to change?

"There are no environmental problems, there are only environmental symptoms of human problems.” Robert Gilman

Do you feel guilty that sustainability doesn’t play a larger role in your life?

Is there a conflict between money and sustainability in your work?

Is your story about sustainability holding you back?

Our relationship with sustainability can be fraught with cognitive dissonance; there is often a conflict between what we want to do and what we feel we ought to do. In this workshop we will explore issues such as:

• the stories we have inherited from our families

• our loyalty to workplace values about sustainability

• the conflict between money and sustainability in our work

• the ‘best’ place from which we can make a difference

The experiential workshop will include opportunities for participants to map and explore their challenges in a systemic format. For more information on the methodology see this page.

Benefits for participants may include:

• Reduced inner conflict and a clearer sense of purpose

• A sense of your own power to effect change

• Easier conversations with colleagues about sustainability

Benefits for organisations may include:

• Greater buy-in to sustainable approaches across the organisation

• Happier employees and more harmonious relationships
