Why We Are Here

When Everything Matters (WEMCo) helps transform business models into authentic Sustainable Development partnerships. We use Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) to drive profitability. Our integrated, whole-systems approach empowers people to see Big Picture connections among today's disparate elements and create systemic change. This balances power and purpose to build strength-based, sustainable enterprises with ethical business practices.
Our background in biology, extractive industries, ecology, societies and governance, combined with the study of natural systems enables us to trace the processes that create new opportunities. As in nature, adaptation leads to competitive advantage. The urgent and clear need for adaptive change inspires us to produce more with less waste and create lasting solutions with multiple benefits. WEMCo inspires people and helps create processes for united socio-economic and business change-for-good. Ecosystem-based discoveries guide our inquiries. We then customize our solutions to fit the specific needs of each client. Our Values People We value different ways of learning and knowing—from ancient cultural traditions to modern sciences. We value people and respect their time and diverse knowledge. Planet We value the natural world and its ecosystem services. We understand resources. Prosperity We value creating VALUE for all stakeholders—employees, customers, shareholders, investors, suppliers, and communities. |
The way to understand how different species evolved is to think about the niches that they fill in an ecosystem - basically, how they make a living." |
Who We Work WithWEMCo works with businesses and corporate executives who can think in decades as well as quarters. We work with people who aspire to sustained high performance and recognize the need for institutional change to capitalize on today’s challenges with solutions beyond tomorrow. Whole-systems thinking empowers people to optimize individual functions and align them throughout an entire enterprise—from sourcing to engineering to supply chain and manufacturing, to sales, service, and community relations—When Everything Matters. This alignment starts with leaders. From blueprint to footprint to “positive handprint,” we guide corporate and project leaders through program designs and decision-making.
