Shelton Fleming is partnered with Nelis Global, an NGO with a focus on supporting the next generation of grassroots leaders, working with their employers, to accelerate new ways of tackling climate change and delivering positive social impacts.

The companies Nelis’ brings into their sustainability initiatives in local communities around the world, operate on a global scale and enjoy everyday brand recognition. Supporting Nelis’ marketing and outreach activities in Europe, we saw an opportunity to make a meaningful impact on environmental and social issues. Shelton Fleming works with many of the world’s renowned B2B brands, all of whom are highly committed to building and investing the green transformation of their sectors. And in the case of financial service brands, the effort goes even further, to include shifting investment portfolios to a green agenda. It was a no brainer to partner with Nelis. 

Shelton Fleming is a gateway for leading B2B brands that want to provide aspiring leaders in their organisations with access to eco-initiatives, they can actively work on and support, in parallel with their day job. Nelis provides formal training in, and access to, sustainability experts who can coach and mentor these employees. 

Nelis supports grassroot climate initiatives across the EMEA region. These projects provide the platform for the next generation of sustainability champions and leaders to get hands-on experience on green transformation initiatives. The employees given access to Nelis’ community of eco-entrepreneurs have the opportunity to bring their expertise, ideas and commercial savvy to bear on eco-initiatives. 

When a brand sponsors Nelis they have access to sustainability initiatives that can align with their values and sustainability goals. It’s also a fantastic talent acquisition and retention programme. Companies can offer the aspiring leaders the opportunity to be involved in climate and social-related initiatives with an orientation to developing new skills and experiences geared around sustainability. It’s a proven way to attract and retain talent; especially, young millennial, Gen Z and Gen Alpha staff.
