Environmental organisation

As an environmental organisation you are committed to your cause and engaging other people in taking action

It can be frustrating when people don’t seem to respond in the way you hope or your sector seems to be slow to embrace change.

Are you Pioneers…

In advance of a Sustainable Sidekicks behaviour change workshop with community waste management professionals, they completed the CDSM Maslow values type test.

Everyone who responded came out as Pioneers, who are motivated by environmental, social and ethical causes. Yet according to Chris Rose’s 2025 research, the world is made up of 55% Prospectors (motivated by personal success) and 20% Settlers (family and friend motivations).

If Pioneers are communicating to Prospectors and Settlers with the messages and motivations that engage them, nothing is going to change.

Who am I

I’m Livvy, a sustainability and behaviour change consultant on a mission to engage people beyond the green echo chamber and help businesses like yours achieve their goals!

I’ve been the person carrying the office recycling home on my bike and wondering why nobody cares as much as me – which is what led me to learn all about behavioural science and how we can motivate people to change. I have extensive experience in applying these principles to encourage people to adopt sustainable habits in their work, home and leisure time and helping others do the same.
