Shownotes

In this episode, David Ritter, CEO of Greenpeace Australia, takes us on his journey into the leadership of environmental activism. We explore the power of collaboration in driving impactful outcomes at scale,  the vital role of trust-building in creating lasting change, and the necessity of forging strategic partnerships with like minded collaborators to support a sustainable future.

I was most inspired by David’s personal congruence with his mission, how artfully he expresses his vision to lead his organisation and strategically affects massive change, and his openness about personal sustainability in the face of long term challenges.

You’re going to love hearing about how purposeful leadership and meaningful, intentional collaboration can catalyse transformative impact in our communities and beyond.
