About Us
Planet Positive Collab was founded to help accelerate innovative systems change, supporting businesses as they transform to create lasting positive impact. As companies respond to the growing imperative to do business differently, they face a complex landscape of choices—balancing carbon reduction, labor practices, community engagement, waste reduction, circularity, water stewardship, biodiversity, and more. Understanding where to start, how to prioritize, and how to connect these impact areas is essential to avoid unintended consequences and build resilience across the business.
At Planet Positive Collab, we specialize in making these connections. We bring a holistic perspective, weaving positive impact into every aspect of business to drive meaningful, synergistic outcomes. Our goal is to help clients navigate these evolving priorities with creativity, clarity, and commitment to a better future.
