đď¸ Had an inspiring conversation on the latest episode of the Sustaining Success: A Sustainability World Cup Podcast with Fiona Wright, founder of CT Futures and one of this yearâs Sustainability World Cup winners!
Fiona brought such a thoughtful perspective on what it really means to drive sustainabilityânot just as a business outcome, but as a collaborative, transformational process. Her energy and candor made this discussion a real highlight.
âłď¸ Here are 3 key takeaways Iâd love everyone in my network to consider:
Purposeful Play Accelerates Learning
Fiona shared how gamified experiences (like the Sustainability World Cup simulation) created space for her team to play, experiment, and bond. As adults, we often overlook the importance of âplayââbut itâs key to unlocking innovation and deeper team engagement.
Balancing Vision with Agility
Sustainability isnât just about thinking ahead. Itâs about being willing to shift strategies, learn from whatâs happening in real time, and adaptâeven when the path isnât clear. The tension between incremental steps and transformational leaps came up again and again.
Team Chemistry is Everything
âFind yourself a teamââthat was one of Fionaâs core messages. Through the World Cup, she discovered new strengths within her team and even found a future hire! Teamwork, alignment, and enjoying who you work with cannot be understated on the journey toward sustainability.
If youâre interested in actionable leadership, systems thinking, and how purposeful learning environments can build stronger teams, I truly encourage you to give this episode a listen.
A huge thank you to Fiona for sharing her wisdom and to Ed Bradford and Leila Bardasuc for co-hosting. And if you want to learn more about the Sustainability World Cup, check out www.the-swc.com.
