1 A deep awareness and a clear picture of your personal mission statement and your true values will lead to your greatest legacy.

2 Volunteerism is also a great way to get noticed and be found in the green economy, even if you just volunteer on a project basis.

3 The best way to add real value in your career, towards promoting a sustainable future, is to work in a few disciplines that are opposing but complimentary. Say, a Marine Biologist who is also a circular economy expert. These two disciplines go hand in hand, because the marine ecosystems could do with more circular economy designs to prevent plastic waste from entering the ocean. These are rare pairings of skills but are in dire need to make real changes

4 I also strongly believe in developing your digital skills in a changing world and the best way to reach people now and more so into the future will be through the internet in some way or another. Figure out which digital skill you can use to really stand out from the crowd and create a lasting impact in your field.
