Impact in Action

When we think of social change, our minds often go to protests, new laws, or stories of redemption and social justice. And social change is all of those things. But often, it’s also a long process, where a community comes together, looks for solutions, and learns through trials and errors. Welcome to Impact in Action, from MGT. On this podcast, we dive into the real stories behind every social impact solution. From the vibrant heart of Baltimore, to the rural depths of North Carolina, we discover what really goes into social innovation and community development. We ask the important questions: What can we do to lift women and minority groups and give them access to business opportunities? How do we improve our schools, to offer young people a better start in life? What does an inclusive workplace look like? And how do we build it? Who are those who manage our local communities, and how are they looking after us? Our guests step up to the microphone, to reflect on their work, whether they’re government professionals, social impact consultants, community engagement officers, or members of the public on a mission. They share their expertise and insights, and show us what social welfare looks like in practice. They tell their own personal stories of empowerment. Technology solutions, disparity studies, education turnarounds, compensation research; there’s a lot that goes into social impact work. So whether you’re seeking advice to support underserved communities, or you want to untangle key issues of equity, diversity and inclusion; Impact in Action will help you grab the tools you need to build stronger social programs.
