Uncommon CourageAuthor: Andrea T Edwards
Welcome to Uncommon Courage, the podcast, where well be having the conversations we need to be having as members of the human collective. We are all being called upon to step up and lead with kindness, big hearts and unshakable courage because right now, we have an opportunity to redress what we got wrong in the past, as well as deal with the disruptions we face today, to create a better world for all. However, if we are completely truthful, the biggest challenge we face is believing we can do it believing in our ability to create massive change. But everyone knows you cant achieve anything significant without guts, determination, and of course, the courage to keep driving towards the goal, regardless of how hard the journey is! Uncommon Courage will feature global conversations determined to contribute to creating a better future for all life on earth. Ideas, solutions, arguments and laughs - itll all be part of the journey. It is time for that which is uncommon to become common.#UncommonCourage #AndreaTEdwards Language: en-us Genres: News, News Commentary Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

Climate Courage: the role of marketing in a sustainable future
Episode 161
Friday, 14 March, 2025
Does the marketing profession have an outsized impact on the environmental crisis? And if so, how can marketing change track to play a greater role in building a sustainable future? That’s our focus this week, and we’re going to start with the problem with marketing, going back through history to its present day. We’ll look at its role, the harm it does, and the challenges we face in turning the marketing ship around. We will look at marketing’s role in behaviour change and consumption habits, greenwashing, and it’s even worse cousin, greenhushing, all the way through to the importance of DEI across the profession, but also in the work delivered. Most importantly, we’ll talk through the sustainable marketing compass and the pillars of sustainable marketing maturity modelling – which is the solution piece to address the challenges, and a path forward for the industry. To help us uncover this fascinating topic, we are absolutely delighted to welcome two guests: Alexis Eyre and Paul Randle. Alexis and Paul are co-authors of the excellent book, Sustainable Marketing: the industry’s role in a sustainable future. Paul is a sustainable marketing professional and a top 100 marketing influencer, and Alexis is also a sustainable marketing expert and a LinkedIn Top Sustainable Marketing Voice. We can’t wait to hear what they have to share. Come and join us on Friday, 14th March 2025 – 3pm Singapore time, and 7am UK time, or listen to the recording afterwards. We livestream to multiple locations, so follow us all on social media.
