About Impact
Product Description Axiom Business Book Awards 2020 Gold Medalist in Philanthropy / Nonprofit / Sustainability Amazon Bestseller in Environmental Economics, Sustainable Development Economics, Sustainable Business Development, and Green Business Our world faces many possible futures. We must act today to ensure the best outcomes. In Impact Imperative, author Pamela Ryan explores the likely realities facing our planet and humanity for the next few decades. We are, as she tells us, at a pivotal moment in history where there are organizations and investors doing immense good, but there are also seemingly insurmountable challenges for our planet that they are trying to overcome: overpopulation, climate change, and economic disparity. Impact Imperative stems from consultations that Dr. Ryan and her colleagues had with over 130 professionals in the burgeoning impact innovation space. As Dr. Ryan shares insights from these ''impact innovators'' about how we can meet these challenges in the next few decades and beyond, she encourages readers to think about how they too can be a part of the impact revolution and help our future with their actions in the present. Review "Pam Ryan is an exceptional and remarkable person with a combination of intelligence and empathy. She is a force for good in the advancement of humankind in a challenging world." --Bob Hawke, Prime Minister, Australia (1983-1991) "Early on, Pam told me that Impact investing would become much more mainstream, and she was right. During her life, Pam's actions have positively impacted the lives of thousands. I am humbled to be among those individuals Pam Ryan has positively impacted." --Jeanie Wyatt, Founder & CEO, South Texas Money Management; Top Financial Advisor, Barron's magazine "If there's anyone I know who cares about others, sees the world whole, knows that response is better than retreat, and is able to organize and motivate people toward a better future, it's Pamela Ryan. I've never stopped admiring Pamela's instincts and intelligence. Impact Imperative showcases this commitment to act, the vision of a better future, and principled practical ways to accomplish both." --Dr. J. Patrick Boyer, Q.C., Author, Publisher, Lawyer, Professor, and Canadian Member of Parliament and Parliamentary Secretary for External Affairs (1984-1993) "The concept that the world will be a better place because social entrepreneurs are out there working hard (and with technology, now working more cohesively and effectively) is amazing and hopeful. It's really changed how I think about the social ills of the world and helps me envision a more positive future for my kids and all the future generations. Impact Imperative needs to be read by many, many people." --Sue Kolbly, Rideshare Driver, Accountant, and Editor "If anyone can lead the way to transform our future in an enlightened manner it is the irresistible force of nature that is Dr. Pam Ryan." --Kerry Heysen, Producer, and Scott Hicks, Dr. Honoris Causa (Flinders University), Director, Shine, Snow Falling on Cedars, No Reservations, Highly Strung "Dr. Pam Ryan has produced a master work for our time! Her breadth and depth of experience and extensive research and study give her the authority to provide us with prescient information, inspiration and strategic direction. Impact Imperative is of real value and inspiration, especially as we focus on present and future challenges that confront my country, South Africa." --Merle Friedman, PhD, Organizational and Clinical Psychologist; Principal, Psych-Action in South Africa; Director, Psychology Beyond Borders "This book is an inspiring achievement of serious thinking and concrete advice that has been years in the making. Pam Ryan has been drawn to sweeping ideas that could help provide solutions to deep-rooted structural challenges in human society, but those ideas must tangibly work. The Pam Ryan I have known is a
