"In writing "Designing the Purposeful World", Clive hasnt simply published a book, he has created a portal to an adventure that will change your world and that of future generations. His work will take you on pathways that twist and turn, stopping off to hear from inspiring individuals with equally impressive stories along the way. The book will challenge your way of thinking, make you question the way the world works and almost certainly support you in making changes that will improve your way of life and support a more environmentally sustainable world."
Nathan Atkinson, Founder of Fuel for School and Trustee of The Real Junk Food Project
"Clive Wilson is as motivating in print as he is in person. In his latest book he combines a wealth of knowledge, his own practical life experiences and those of others, to convey purpose and value. All this in a world where action is essential but the means is often lacking. Written with clarity and free from jargon, Clive accompanies the reader along a learning journey, as he builds progressive stages of the book. The reader receives continual encouragement to take a hands-on approach towards achieving a purposeful world by applying our own thoughts and experiences throughout. The result is a guide with resounding value, rather than merely food for thought, as is often found in other reflective, less interactive books.
With humanity on the brink of destroying life on our planet, this volume turns the situation around. Instead of painting a picture of gloom and doom, Clive embraces our challenge as an opportunity. Using the framework of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we are shown a practical pathway for each of us to achieve success. Clive develops the themes from Designing the Purposeful Organisation, adeptly ramping these up to the present-day global scenario. Accordingly, the reader has much to gain whether or not they have read his previous insights.
If you are looking for an accessible, real-world methodology for tackling the global environmental and social issues facing us, you are bound to find unpretentious inspiration in this book."
Michelle Marks, Coral Mountain
"A powerful employee engagement opportunity and to help make a positive difference, no matter how small. This book is an excellent follow-up to Designing the Purposeful Organisation how to inspire business performance beyond boundaries.
Overall, an insightful and uplifting read for everyone, written in a practical and down to earth conversational style. This book raises awareness of the UNs Sustainable Development Goals and encourages the reader to reflect on the associated meaningful impacts to everyday life, whether this be on a personal, community or work basis."
