Our Solution

ENGAGE WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS

To understand the sustainability goals, challenges, hurdles, and limitations of your organisation. Where are your points of frustration?

Facilitated engagements with all departments

Create an accurate, visible baseline around key indicators

This will be used to measure success and target critical areas, creating a compelling scoreboard.

Act as a conduit

To efficiently deliver projects and improvements that contribute towards achieving your sustainability goals.

We believe your team already has many of the ideas needed to achieve profit through reaching your sustainability goals. The challenge is to recognize them.

We can help you do this through our facilitated processes, where we directly engage with and support you every step of the way.

To succeed with your sustainability goals, you need to create incremental modernization and transformation. How do you achieve this? We like to call our approach “innovate and integrate.”

Adapting old strategies never reaps long term solutions. It’s time to cultivate internal innovation.

we call this a culture of "intrapreneurship."

We're more than just a consultant.

How? By taking your sustainability goals and give them easily understood measurables that can be reported on. This makes your progress tangible and ties your work to the end goal.

We don’t just advise you on the best action; we help you take it.

At TheClimateChange, we’re working with environmental scientists, culture development specialists, and group facilitators to help you overcome hurdles and reach your sustainability goals.

Sustainability goals and projects can have a significant impact on the way people work.

Change can impact processes, systems, tools, job roles, workflows, mindsets, behaviors, and more.
Much of the benefits reaped from change management is tied to people changing the way they do their jobs. This is the “adoption contribution” of the project—the percentage of project benefits that depend on people changing their day-to-day work.

If we do our change management process well, it will drive people-dependent return on investment.

let your team drive the success of your business.
