Here's how you can evaluate the long-term viability of a social impact initiative.
KEY: Sustainability of a social impact initiative is DIFFERENT from that of a business program. — Yes, one needs to measure + manage impact / impact goals & think about financing. However, stakeholder interests and engagement are uniquely central or vital to social impact initiatives - precisely because impact manifests over such long time horizons. In the absence of being able to see or quantify impact on shorter time horizons, it is extremely important to continue to gauge stakeholder sentiment and shifting objectives. I’ve noticed that as soon as a social impact initiative loses its locus of stakeholder commitment, it falls apart, whether or not it was on a strong, financial or impact trajectory in the long-term.

Here's how you can foster relationships in a diverse and inclusive workplace.
Supporting INNOVATION by ALL employees is one of the most underrated ways to encourage & support DEI. When a modicum is provided for employees to demonstrate their creativity & individuality, their diversity not only comes through, but adds real value to the business or org. — It starts with gathering feedback from a wide range of employees on products / services, strategy, culture, etc., but reaches the next level when combined with ways they can bring their concepts & ideas to life - in low risk, low cost ways, in order to gather proof points.— This is increasingly important in a world of very rapid technological progress / AI.

Here's how you can drive social impact within an organization by cultivating key leadership qualities.
Without trust, there is no sustainable impact so this is critical for internal teams & interactions within the stakeholder ecosystem, as you state. However, the key is to evolve & grow in one’s capabilities around trust + ethics, as new dilemmas present themselves. That way, you stay ahead of the trust curve & this is an area in which it’s critical for the impact team at a company to lead.
