Workshop Transformational Skills for Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)

In 2015, the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's) provided us with a comprehensive plan for a sustainable world by 2030. However, progress is not happening fast enough.

In order to reach the SDG's collectively, we first need to implement the Inner Development Goals on a personal level. People are more likely to take action when those inspiring visions are brought down to their level.

As Einstein said, “we are never going to be able to solve our problems with the same order of consciousness that created those problems”.

The event

During the event we will explore the Inner Development Goal framework and toolkit, experience their practical application, and find out how they can be implemented in the work of organisations.

Your speakers:

• Maria Grazia, The Best Journey Ever

Maria Grazia Testa is an executive leading for more than 20 years the strategy, direction and management of global and international organisations, running operations in 6 continents, within the private, public and NGO sector. The Best Journey Ever leads IDGs and SDGs geared leadership Transitions and Transformations.

• Sander Tideman, Triple Value Leadership

Our special guest will be Sander Tideman, sustainable leadership educator, entrepreneur and humanitarian. Sander has worked directly for 20 years with the Dalai Lama on one hand and corporates like Unilever on the other. For example he has authored the book Business as Instrument for Societal Change – In Conversation with the Dalai Lama, where the concept of "business for good" was firstly introduced.

He has been a frontrunner in everything sustainable development related, when it comes to the humanistic/economic side of it, not just the ecological. Sander will share with us the stories of what miracles he saw happening in big corporations and governments when their top tiers started working on inner development as a way to directly address their business models/country economies. He will tell us how this approach actually increased the economic value, rather than impacting it negatively as the markets would have us believe, while caring for the health of people and planet.
