After a chat today with some interested and interesting folks, I came up with a list of ways one might do a sustainability strategy development process. There are others. Thought I’d stick it on the blog and see what y’all thought.

So here we go:

1. Map issues
2. Map stakeholders (internal and external)
3. Engage
4. Regroup and adapt
5. Develop plans
6. Test internally
7. Regroup and adapt
8. Roll out pilots or proposed plans to external/internal stakeholders
9. Regroup and adapt
10. Roll out at scale
11. Communicate (internal and external)
12. Utilise a smart ongoing feedback process (multi-channel)
13. Respond and review
14. Track performance
15. Show ROI over 5 years
16. Go to pub
