ClimateVoices · Episode 38 · 12-18-23
An interview with Dr. Renée Lertzman, whose career as a climate psychologist and environmental strategist has broken important new ground. Her focus is how we emotionally and cognitively confront global systemic ecological crises, and how we help engage and mobilize response. This sparked the topic for her TED Talk in 2019 on why we need to focus first and foremost on “attuning” to the very real anxieties, ambivalence and aspirations many of us are experiencing. She has done pioneering work with companies like Google and IKEA to equip and enable employees to be highly effective as changemakers by drawing on and applying best practices from psychology. She received an award from KR Foundation to create sources for nonprofit organizations – ProjectInsideOut, a playbook for anyone seeking to evolve engagement strategies.
