Impact creation is no longer the exclusive domain of foundations, non-profits or philanthropic funds. Organisations in all sectors, from businesses to public institutions and civil society organisations, are looking for ways to create positive value for people and nature. Some are still at the beginning, others have been working for years with a clear impact mission. But one thing applies to all of them: intention alone is not enough. Anyone who truly wants to make a difference must learn to steer on impact and manage, measure and communicate that impact systematically. In this whitepaper, we guide organisations, regardless of their starting point, through the basics of impact management.
