Carolina Riofrio: Small steps for big impact and how big challenges can provide a space for optimism
Manage episode 431466354 series 3578224
In the fifth episode of our series I speak with Carolina Riofrio, a Human Resources manager who has worked in a range of industries, from automotive to banking to education, and now focusing on the software industry.
Her passion for good leadership comes across in everything she does - from the way she empowers leaders to help their teams thrive and bring their best and full selves to work, to being a driving force in supporting her organisation on the journey to becoming a B Corp.
For those of you new to the term, a B Corp is an accreditation which demonstrates the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.
Carolina recently became Carbon Literacy accredited through our Impact Amplified programme, as she felt compelled to take more action to tackle Climate Change through the lens of her work. A gradual realisation that while we hear about Climate Change through our children’s education, government and big industry, action is still too slow, so the best way to accelerate the change is if we all chip in.
Carolina shares her perspective on how she, as a Human Resources manager, can effect significant change without having to retrain or invest significant amounts of money. I hope you find some inspiration for how you too could take action to tackle Climate Change in the context of your work, no matter where you are on that journey.
