What and Who
That real innovation and transformation, and the biggest leverage points for integrating sustainability, occur in the ‘INTERIOR’: individuals’ mindsets and values, and organisations’ cultures Again – we know where creativity resides, but do we really take that understanding into our work? In those cases where sustainability had been successfully integrated, the people we spoke to explicitly focused on the culture, the mindsets and values of key leaders and these were the things that indicated the greatest likelihood of success, rather than the infrastructure, metrics or other conditions. If others in your industry are facing the same challenges and constraints, then what goes on inside is all that can make the difference in terms of the capacity to lead, innovate and profit.
Coaching is on the rise as a tool used within organisations. The research shows that coaching has a role to play in integrating sustainability in organisations There is a strong desire amongst coaches to ensure their work makes a contribution to a broader collective (organisational, community, societal goals). Different forms of coaching are appropriate for different organisations and individuals at different stages of development.

And before I continue with my presentation, and actually talk about the research we did I wanted to hear from you about whether and how this context affects the work you do as coaches.
