This role will keep INDEVOR updated on progress and alert to places that alumni voices can be helpful encouragers of the journey.

This role would help develop a cross-NAA/Global Club (GC) advocacy agenda for sustainability learning and action.

This role will champion and facilitate webinars with our webinar administrator and NAA/ GC partners to create a repeatable approach to planning, promotion, implementation and feedback.

Above all, we seek leaders who are passionate and committed to mobilizing the INSEAD alumni community toward positive social and environmental impact – to imbue our alums with sustainable life and work practices for people and our planet. Many of our members are part of the Community Impact Challenge initiative. Many work in NGOs, CSR, impact investing, social entrepreneurship, international organizations, microfinance, while others are interested in bringing sustainable practices to their corporate workplaces.
As part of our vision, launched at INSEAD’s June 2023 Annual Volunteers Meeting, INDEVOR, with CIC as a global action partner, serves as hub of a growing alumni sustainability network across NAAs and Global Clubs in alliance with the IAA and school (including the Hoffman Global Institute for Business and Society and INSEAD Climate Journey, the INDEVOR MBA Club – where it all began back in 1993.
We will shortlist candidates based on the quality of the responses and invite INDEVOR members to vote on the top candidates. We aim to announce the new ExCo members December 15th, 2023.
