Global network of leaders changing the World through business

This is the mission statement of NetImpact http://www.netimpact.org/.
In a slight departure from my more practical business ideas. This week I will discuss Net Impact and how this non profit organisation is addressing some of the issues that represent the most important topic in the World today. Human impact on the environment. This is despite our immediate concerns about the world felt financial crisis. There is no need here to go on about how interconnected human activities and Mother Earth are. I am sure we all realise no resources equals no business.

Net Impact is a global organisation founded in 1993 by 16 MBA interns who started a network to put their business skills to use to both make money and achieve positive social good. Spanning six continents with a membership of over 10,000 members. These members include undergraduate students, graduates and professionals.

Using programs and initiatives such as Campus Greening, Green Challenge and Impact at Work, NetImpact is helping leaders influence corporate social responsilbility, social entrepreneurship, environmental sustainability.

When I found out about NetImpact I was so impressed by what I read that I contacted them and spoke about forming a Chapter in my city of Jönköping Sweden. At the moment I am building a initial leadership team.

Therefore I recommend to you to visit NetImpact's web site.
