eLearning, Workshops, and Facilitation
While technical knowledge is essential for addressing climate challenges, progress often stalls without effective leadership to mobilize climate action. ASI works with corporate, nonprofit, and government organizations to deliver custom eLearning, workshops, and facilitation to help align visions, raise awareness of climate-related issues, and help embed sustainability across the organization.
ASI creates custom online training programs to help employees and stakeholders learn about climate change. These eLearning courses typically cover key topics like climate literacy, how climate change affects specific industries, organizational sustainability commitments, and ways employees can take climate action within their roles.
ASI hosts interactive workshops designed to help organizations, conferences, and events integrate climate action and sustainability into their work. Our workshops focus on leadership development, systems thinking, and modelling exercises to help us envision a low-carbon, socially-inclusive future.
No matter where you are on your journey — whether you’re just starting out, leading change, or simply passionate about protecting the planet — this workshop will help you map your leadership strengths and discover where you’re ready to shine (and grow) within ASI’s six Transition Leadership competencies.
Transition Leadership is a set of skills that help you navigate complexity and create value that’s good for people, good for business, and good for the planet.
Change doesn’t happen all at once—old systems start to decline while new ideas take root. The Two Loops of Systems Change model, developed by the Berkana Institute, helps explain how this shift happens and the different roles people play in it.
This workshop explores how systems rise and fall, why some people work to hold on to what exists while others push for something new, and how both are part of the change process. Through conversation and activities, we’ll look at how change happens, what makes it hard, and how we can all play a role in shaping a sustainable future.
This workshop helps people understand different viewpoints on a challenge and work together to create a clear picture or model of where things are now and where they want to go in terms of sustainability. Whether it’s for a company, community, or project, participants will explore opportunities, identify obstacles, and find common ground. This shared understanding sets the stage for real change.
Thinking outside the box isn’t always easy, but this workshop makes it fun. Through a series of playful and interactive brainstorming activities, participants tap into their creative side. By the end, they’ll walk away with new techniques for coming up with fresh ideas they can use in both their personal and professional lives.
This workshop helps participants understand the benefits of using an equity-centered design approach at work. Participants learn about the key ideas, methods, and practical applications that can boost empathy, inclusivity, and innovation in their organizations.
To create meaningful change, organizations and groups often need guided conversations and planning sessions with the right people in the room.
ASI specializes in designing and leading these sessions, helping teams work through challenges, spark new ideas, and find a clear path forward. With years of experience in facilitation, engagement, and innovation labs, we work with you to create a process that supports real progress and lasting impact.
