About the two founders of
Post Growth Guide
Since 2015, we have helped green companies outcompete conventional alternatives. In 2022, we wanted to go further, from working with conventional sustainability to Beyond Growth strategies, because we saw that the old ways weren't working.
The only problem: We couldn't find any resources on Beyond Growth strategies for companies. It was only philosophy and macroeconomics.
So, we decided to downsize our agency, fire clients (felt good) and employees (felt terrible), and move into something smaller to enable ourselves to create a Guide that explored the most critical question in the 21st century: How do we align businesses with planetary boundaries?
We have spent the past two years going through old and new theories at the intersection of sustainability, business and scale (sustainability, post growth, systems dynamics, economies of scale and small being beautiful and less fragile), talking to hundreds of practitioners (small pioneers, activists, investors, employees and directors who are either frustrated they can't talk about limits to growth or who have found ways to open that conversation), analyzing hundreds of companies (what works for them, what doesn't, what are the barriers for sufficient change, and how do we remove those barriers) and exploring how we can build Post Growth Guide in a way that align with planetary boundaries (we cover ownership, governance, finance, business plan, business model, scale, and theory of change in our handbook).
