From the Dalai Lama to Experian - Isabel Kelly's road from campaigner to business change
Manage episode 298721013 series 2928005
What human impact does your business have?
Isabel Kelly watched first hand how business influence was used to secure the release of political prisoners. That left her with a lasting impression of the power of business to positively impact human rights which she's taken with her in her business engagements with Profit with Purpose since.
And what a trajectory it's been. It's gone from setting up and leading the international arm of Salesforce.org to the work she does today helping companies make their purpose real.
Amongst the stories of impact made by the businesses she's worked with, there are a number of recurring themes and lessons which she surfaces in this episode of the Karmic Capitalist podcast.
From how having clarity on your direction at a young age opens up opportunities most people simply dream of, through frameworks and practicalities of engaging with ESG topics, to the nuances of ESG as a facilitator for employee engagement - there is a mountain of practical gold, alongside some amazing stories from the world where business and social justice meet (and not always elegantly!).

_______________
I host a weekly online workshop with CEOs of SMEs (10 to 100 employees approx) about scaling up, allowing them to step back and do more strategic work, and doing it in line with their values. Max 6 per session so we can have a real conversation.
If you'd like to join me, find a date that works for you here. They aren't charged for - you and I will both get value from the conversation.
Only CEOs / MDs apply - strictly peer-level conversation.
