WorkforClimate, Head of Experience & Climate coach
For the first part of her career, Laure helped large and fast-growing companies automate and improve their marketing with data. In 2020, she was confronted to climate change, and decided that the problem was too significant to be working on anything else. She is now leveraging her skills and experience to help employees transform their organisations and shift the corporate sector from within. She truly believes in the collective power of people to create change.
WorkforClimate, Director & Climate coach
After a decade in the corporate sector, working within a climate progressive business, Lucy wants to help more corporations around the world decarbonise, faster.
01
Why corporations are key to tackle the climate crisis
We will start by taking a look at the big picture, what is at stake and how climate change is reshaping the rules of business. We will explore systems dynamics and the role played by corporations. We will discuss how organisations can truly become part of the solution, regardless of their sector and business model.
02
Creating momentum in your organisation
We will explore how to strategise and organise on climate within your company. We will discuss proven methods and techniques to influence stakeholders and mobilise colleagues to feel motivated and empowered to act. We’ll practice having productive climate conversations.
03
The business case for climate
You will learn how to demonstrate the business case for climate action, and how to connect climate goals with broader business goals. We will review case studies examples and role play talking to different stakeholders.
04
Energy - Switching to 100% Renewables
In our first deep dive series, we take a look at one of the most significant goals a company can take on to reduce the impact of its operations: switching to 100% renewable energy. We’ll explore why this is a priority for companies, what it means to commit to this goal, and the different pathways available to companies.
05
Emissions - Developing a meaningful climate program
The second deep dive series is dedicated to corporate greenhouse gas emissions. Learn what it takes to develop a credible net zero plan, and how to help your company take impactful and immediate action towards decarbonisation.
06
Money - Aligning investments with a safe climate future
Investments provide a major opportunity to scale impact. Learn how companies can align their investments - starting with superannuation funds - with a safe climate future, and the short and long term benefits that come from doing so.
07
Advocacy - Using influence to shape policy and drive systemic change
Staying on the side line is no longer an option. In the last deep dive series we will explore how companies can use their influence to drive policy change, and how employees can push their company to step up and be more vocal about climate.
08
Developing your climate voice
Working on change takes courage and confidence. We will help you build your influence potential, increase your communication and leadership skills, and use storytelling to communicate more effectively.
