In this month's seminar, co-hosted with the Gradel Institue of Charity, we will be joined by sociologist and non-profit strategist Leah Reisman, and EY sustainability partner and climate strategy advisor, Ben Taylor, to discuss the powerful role consultants play in shaping how organisations think about and do impact, in the non-profit, private and public sectors. Moderated by Professor Marya Besharov, Academic Director of the Skoll Centre, the discussion will reflect on insights from Leah's forthcoming book, How Consultants Shape Non-Profits (November 2024) and Ben's extensive experience delivering sustainability strategies for global organisations. The seminar will discuss consultants' pivotal and complex role in shaping the social impact sector, considering the power advisors wield, the problems that can arise in this relationship, and their potential to shape and scale the impact in the field.
