When we think of “social impact”, the layperson may think that it squarely sits in the realm of civil society. Yet, we see an encouraging trend of public, private and civil society actors taking on board bottom-up, employee-led initiatives for social impact.
Newer generation of employees increasingly seek meaning and impact alongside the work that they do. They wish to see their skills contribute to social & environmental impact and to be champions of change within their organisations or as extension of their work. How might we harness this energy to enable our future leaders to spearhead long-lasting meaningful change within their organisations or even beyond?
Come Grab a Coffee with us to explore how young people can be champions of change in their area of work, and share how businesses and entrepreneurs can support this endeavour.
