The Organization: Sustainability Accelerator is a benefit corporation built to provide Sustainability Leaders and Practitioners across the globe with practical tools and insights, an engaging community, and timely research-backed advisory services. Together, WE ARE Sustainability Accelerator, and we invite everyone to join us!

The Concept: Sustainability Accelerator is the embodiment of a vision wherein millions of likeminded change agents around the world actively work within their own spheres of influence to accelerate global sustainability, as defined by the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (e.g., no poverty, reduce inequalities, climate action, etc.).

Yes! We are incorporated legally as a Benefit Corporation, and as such, our responsibility is to strive to meet the needs of ALL our stakeholders rather than focusing primarily on executing fiduciary responsibilities for shareholders.

Benefit Corporations are leaders of a global movement to use business as a force for good, and we voluntarily self-report performance standards. Being a Benefit Corporation directly aligns with our business model of inspiring social and environmental change as a means to improve the human condition, increase social consciousness, and accelerate sustainability. This ensures that we’re able to closely monitor our performance against our goals as the organization grows and evolves.

Our Mission: We accelerate scalable sustainability by facilitating community engagement and building local leadership capability, SO THAT in-the-trenches change agents have the energy, skills, teams, and network needed to build a sustainable world.

Learn more about our mission and values.

We have developed a unique methodology and accompanying set of toolkits that enable change agents to get results on projects that matter by collectively utilizing practical, easy-to-implement frameworks.

From decision making to accountability… and five-star teams to innovation, our tools make it simple for local leaders to accelerate impact. This mobile-first toolkit is easy to access whenever a change agent faces a challenging leadership situation.

We launched in February 2015 in a garage attic when our founder, who worked for a global talent and leadership consulting firm, determined to shift focus towards supporting organizations and projects that were making a difference for good. Initial projects included supporting cell phone technology solutions for banking and communication for the poorest of the poor in Bangladesh, providing training and organizational structure support for an NGO supporting local manufacturing in Ghana, and working with government leaders in Mauritius to build a national roadmap for a sustainable future. Since those early days, we have been honored to work with and learn from many great sustainability heroes around the world.

Absolutely! We know that resources are scarce, and we advocate for evidence-based investments.

YES! We evaluate results at two levels:

First we measure overall project impact with an emphasis on stakeholder satisfaction. Project impact means at least 60% of stakeholders agree that their situation has improved and that stakeholders’ satisfaction has increased.

After working with us, over 100 client projects addressing all 17 of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals were evaluated by 1000s of their stakeholders, and 98.6% of stakeholders celebrated positive project impact. We’re confident that your stakeholders will give you a strong vote of confidence as well!

We also evaluate local leader capacity building to ensure leaders are equipped to deliver sustainable results in the long-term.  Our program is uniquely designed to develop local leader capacity so that your leaders have the skills and tools they need to continue achieving results for years to come.

We measure improvement across the four domains of Sustainability Leadership. Click HERE so see average results from our past clients. We guarantee an average improvement of at least 25%.
