It’s B Corp Month!🌎 When we first certified as a B Corp back in 2020, we had big ambitions to change the perspective of financial planning by doing business for good. We formulated big plans to help us achieve those ambitions. And we made big changes to get there. Now, four years and a recertification later, we have new ambitions. New goals. And new changes to make. This B Corp Month is a special one for us, as we celebrate B Corp past, present, and future. To mark the occasion, we’re doing 4 things: 1. Celebrating our recertification in style at our ‘B-Day’ event 2. Ticking off steps in our company wide 15 for 15 challenge 3. Launching our new Conscious Inclusion Group 4. Making further adjustments to the office to promote inclusion Keep your eyes peeled for updates on B-Day, 15 for 15, and our Conscious Inclusion Group! We are all about supporting our community, so if you have any questions about how to become a B Corp or what certification entails, don’t hesitate to get in touch at the link in our bio. #bcorpcertified #bcorpmonth #bcorpmonth2024 #bcorpbusiness #wealthmanagement

Collaboration is the 'secret sauce' that we have built our success on here at Wise Goose - do read and share this article about the importance of collaboration from #Bcorps Chris Turner

While studying for my LLM, I always participated in JCI London events and in those gatherings, I came to recognize the benefit of communities. Some of these benefits include; 1. Support System: At the heart of every community is a robust support network. Members of a community provide emotional, social, and even financial support during times of need. This sense of belonging fosters resilience and well-being. 2. Shared Resources: Communities often pool resources, which can be more efficient and beneficial for everyone. This includes everything from shared knowledge and skills to physical resources like community gardens and tool libraries. 3. Collaboration and Growth: Being part of a community encourages collaboration. People with diverse skills and backgrounds come together, sparking innovation and growth. This synergy can lead to personal and professional development. 4. Increased Happiness: Research shows that being part of a community can lead to greater happiness and satisfaction. The social interactions and sense of belonging play a crucial role in overall mental health. 5. Cultural Preservation: Communities help preserve and pass down traditions, languages, and cultural practices. This continuity strengthens cultural identity and pride. 6. Networking Opportunities: A community provides a rich ground for networking. Whether for personal connections or professional alliances, being part of a network can open doors to new opportunities. 7. Shared Goals and Achievements: Working together towards common goals fosters a sense of accomplishment and pride. Celebrating successes as a community strengthens bonds and motivates further progress. 8. Safety and Security: A close-knit community looks out for its members. This collective vigilance can enhance safety and security, providing peace of mind to everyone involved. 9. Advocacy and Influence: Communities have a stronger voice when advocating for their needs and rights. Collective action can influence policy changes and bring about positive social impact. 10. Personal Fulfillment: Being active in a community provides a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Contributing to something bigger than oneself can be deeply rewarding. In essence, communities are the bedrock of human society. They nurture individuals, foster growth, and create an environment where everyone can thrive. By investing in and nurturing our communities, we build a stronger, more connected world. Which community are you a part of? #flashbackfridays #community #flashbackfriday

At Zest, we recognise that to be a force for good, we need to continue challenging our ways of working and striving to do better, whether that be through engaging communities in social value projects, evaluating and improving our employee experience, or undertaking carbon literacy training. #BCorpMonth #ZestEV #EVCharging #EVChargingInfrastructure

A common misconception people might have when we talk about companies "doing good", is that we're only referring to corporate donations or company-led volunteer work. These are very good ways a company can give back, no doubt, yet "doing good" actually can go beyond these. Inclusive hiring, ensuring the employees are fairly-paid and properly cared for are other ways a company can do good for their People. Responsible resource planning and proper waste management are ways a company can do right for our Planet. And when you are driven to do good for People and Planet, very likely you'll also do well at your Profits 😉 I had the pleasure of joining our Grow With Purpose (GwP) cohort of F&B companies during their final session cum graduation event. The GwP (F&B edition) programme showed participants how they can enhance their business value through inclusive hiring, waste management, and business model redesign. One of the participants reflected during the session on how he gained more confidence in embracing inclusive hiring after seeing other companies do it with success. Happy as I was to unexpectedly reconnect with Noel Wong (it was really nice to see you! 😊), I was more encouraged by the sharing of the participants on their takeaways and hearing about the various collaborations (some of which led to potential new business opportunities) that blossomed out of the programme. I guess what's better than being just a good company, is to be in a community of good companies 🥰 #ProfitwithPurpose Read the coverage about our GwP programme here: https://lnkd.in/gYkhdpK5
