Making a Social Impact Starts with YOU First

Today I am talking with Sadiki Etienne, who has spent the last ten years partnering with leaders at some of the world’s most influential organizations to address global development challenges and enhance economic inclusion. Throughout his career, he has applied his experience in operational strategy, program implementation, and public policy reform in over 25 countries! I am particularly excited to talk with him from the perspective of us both doing the work of social entrepreneurship, and how we use these skills to help facilitate change in small and big ways in a consistent effort to make the world a better place. Topics in this episode Applying this work to many different sectors Creating inclusive ecosystems within a company and within the larger community Understanding the nuances within consumer groups so that all of their needs are addressed The connection between internal diversity and being able to serve your customers to the fullest extent The virtues of what it takes to do social impact work Asking team members: what are your strengths and weaknesses, and how does that impact the team, the client, and the work you are doing?
