“Collaboration is really key... if you can align the political support of your mayor and council with the community-based organisations that really is the recipe for success when it comes to making an impact on the ground” Definitely an approach that we can learn from here..

#Playtowin #Strategy is not complex. It is hard. It forces people and organisations to make specific #choices about their future . It is also about what to say no to ...and deciding ... #Where will you play? How will you #win? What #capabilities you must have? #strategic

‘Schools have the potential to educate new generations into democratic values...they are secure places where children & young people can experiment with what it is to be be democratic.’ I agree. We need pedagogies not just curriculum to achieve this. theconversation.com/democrac…

Replying to @MikeWamungu
Yes. Users forget the cause after a certain while as well. I think this is because the causes are either 1) not connected to the company’s bigger vision, or 2) just about creating awareness, not real and lasting change.

Excellent overview of #inclusivecapitalism. The social in #ESG needs to be extended to life value models based on #meaningfulness, stakeholder voice, values, and human capability development. Does capitalism need saving from itself? - on.ft.com/315WTLn via @FT
