Six Degree People Information

Six Degree People conducted its first board level sustainability recruitment assignment in 1998. The founder, Andy James, wrote the 2009 White Paper - The 5 stages to a sustainable business - which  was widely praised for providing a template for the type of multi-faceted individual needed to devise and execute a bold sustainability strategy. Six Degree People continues to champion the importance of those rare non-linear people, who have worked across all our systems as critical in providing the best possible road maps to shifting our growth system from extractive to neutral to regenerative in the shortest possible timeframe. Before Six Degree People take on a recruitment assignment, they help organisations re-write job descriptions to break free from the underwhelming cycle of "less extractive than last year" roles which dominate, to the regenerative roles the world needs. Latterly Six Degree People has developed a career advisory practice for individuals already at the forefront of change, to ensure they stay there. To move on from these highly lucrative but ultimately inadequate "less extractive roles" to ensure their experiences, personal brand and network continue to align with the regenerative, the scaling the new. Six Degree People believes within 5 years, potential employers or investors will be asking "So, are you an expert in less extractive growth or regenerative growth?"
