3 Things You Can Do to Drive Social Impact Today
Sometimes it feels like the system is stacked against us; that we’re all just cogs in a corporate world and are powerless to impact change, especially if we’re not the leader of a large team.
However, every day more data comes out that shows us the level of influence from wherever we sit
It’s true that we vote with our wallets, but we can do even more.
We have the opportunity to advocate for the organizations we want (or don’t want) in our communities.
We have the option to demand human rights are protected for our coworkers and people who make the products and services we use.
We have the power to pay attention to the businesses that are doing the right thing for our environment, and demand more from those that are not.
I know firsthand that sometimes these actions feel too small to make an impact, but in the same way that each of our purchases add up to huge profits, in the same way do our demands and action incentivize businesses that do the right thing, and increase costs for those that aren’t.
You are more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
