Finally, the lack of a specific definition for what sustainability consulting IS also probably adds to its attraction its easy to think, Hey, I can help a company turn off its lights more or use fewer plastic water bottles. Next week, Ill talk more about the specific skills that are important if this is indeed the type of work you want to do. Through outlining those skills, you should be able to evaluate whether sustainability consulting is really where you fit best or whether there is a different space where your skill set and background is a better fit AND you can still have the impact you want.
