Successfully Attract Your Clients to Climate Action
Whether you are just thinking about getting involved in climate concerns or a long-time activist, this session is a tonic for our troubled times. Shift from dread and despair about climate change to meaningful action to make a difference now and for generations to come. Discover an approach employing neuroscience, psychology, and successful coaching experiences that turns traditional wisdom about climate action on its head. Instead of pushing people to take prescribed actions, it attracts them by helping them identify what they love to do. Then, it guides them to find the climate needs they’d like to address.
The match up of what you love to do and where you want to make a difference defines your “climate sweet spots.” When you follow your sweet spots, you will be on a path to make a meaningful and personally rewarding difference. This attraction model taps self-motivation to sustain efforts for a healthy climate. As we—you, us, our family members, friends, co-workers, clients, and community members engage, we will mobilize the support necessary to turn awareness into actions and advocacy for a healthy planet.
You’ll see how being climate action catalysts for one another will ease our efforts and multiply the value we create. Experience the balance of a clear framework and flexibility of application for use across the diverse CCA community.
Benefit from Don Maruska’s experience as a successful entrepreneur, business coach, climate solver, and author of the new book “Solve Climate Change Now: Do What You Love for a Healthy Planet.”
Connect with Andy Miller who’s at the leading edge of engaging people in critically important conversations that unlock them from fear and free them to live into the challenges with gusto. Enjoy fresh ideas and real-life stories that will stimulate your thinking and encourage you on your journey.
Climate coaches have shared comments about this approach like: “This is easy and fun to do.” “Thanks for giving a straightforward and tangible set of tools.” “I’m a new coach, and now I can visualize myself engaging clients about climate with confidence.” We invite you to experience this yourself.
