??? A Leadership Journey Rooted in Diversity and Growth at the #SDGSummitUSA ??? I’ve attended many sustainability events over the years, but the SDG Summit USA yesterday in NYC left a truly lasting impression on me—and not just for the sustainable finance panel and circularity roundtable I had the honor of participating in. What stood out most was the UN Global Compact Network USA team’s commitment to fostering growth from within. I was truly inspired by the diversity of seniority they showcased in each panel by giving junior team members the unique opportunity to moderate most sessions—for some, it was their very first time. Having collaborated with this team over the years, I’ve witnessed the growth of these young leaders firsthand, watching them rise as the next generation of sustainability champions. Yesterday was a clear reflection of their dedication, knowledge, and passion. From Noah A. Smith confidently moderating the panel on DEI, rooted in his work with the Business & Human Rights Accelerator, to Mallory Cannon leading discussions on water stewardship, drawing from her work on the Corporate Water Stewardship Report, and Caitlin McGinnis moderating the sustainable finance session while drafting this year’s report on Sustainable Finance for the SDGs—each of them brought their keen understanding of their SDG areas to life. Watching them confidently deliver thoughtful questions, moderate nuanced discussions, and set the tone for each session was not only educational for the audience but uplifting for the team itself. It was a powerful reminder that diversity is not just about who we invite to speak—it’s about who within our own organizations is given the opportunity to grow, shine, and be heard. The UN Global Compact Network USA has demonstrated what an empowering, inclusive, and forward-thinking culture looks like under the leadership of Richard Pearl and Claudia Herbert Colfer—one that gives space for everyone to practice, learn, and lead. It’s a model of leadership development that we should all take to heart. It’s clear that diversity isn’t just a box to check—it’s an ongoing investment in people that drives not just organizations, but movements forward. Bravo to the UN Global Compact Network USA for building and embodying a culture that lifts everyone up! ?????? #SDGSummitUSA #LeadershipDevelopment #DiversityInLeadership #SocialSustainability #NextGenLeaders #UNGlobalCompact #InclusiveGrowth

"...63% of respondents believe businesses are failing to deliver on their social impact promises. Over seven in ten employees surveyed believe that there is a gap between what their company says about social responsibility and how their company behaves," Great article by Paul Klein on social impact to start off the new year. Three things that stood out for me: ? Create solutions with "customers, employees, and community partners..." ? Support grassroots groups -- I find it disheartening that groups doing truly impactful work are scrounging around for funding. We need trust-based, sustainable funding. This requires bravery. ? Use language that people can understand (ditch airy fairy words). People who know me, know that I love simplifying complex ideas. Thoughts? #SocialImpact #leadership #CSR #ESG #DEI
