OUR DEFINITION OF SUSTAINABILITY
We help organisations to become more sustainable and future-proof. When defining sustainability we like to refer to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); 17 interconnected goals that focus on people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnership. It’s much more than focussing on the climate alone. It’s striving to an ecological, social and economic future-proof world.

About the introduction course:
“Good course if you want to start thinking about sustainability!”
Participants have taken their (first) step!
About the sustainability strategy trajectory:
“Definitely helps to translate sustainability as a “general concept” into concrete actions that you can take as a company / individual to make a contribution. The Sinek circle then resonates with me to continue to act with the goal in mind at all times.”
SOW is part of the ecosystem of The Upgrade Society.
The upgrade society provides an artificial intelligence based platform which optimally matches teams and allows teams to work together at their best. On topics that matter, like sustainability. As sustainability experts we coach and train these teams and individuals. That is why our courses are developed as part of the learning academy of The Upgrade Society.

“She has so much energy it’s contagious”
I love nature, life and people & I want to contribute to a future-proof world as we are currently misusing ‘the system’ (socially and ecologically) and can do better.
By taking my part and focusing on my strengths, I activate and facilitate others to also step in and make impact which gives me so much energy!
