With a profound commitment to promoting positive impact in France for over twelve years, Nicolas Goudy brings a wealth of experience to his role at Purpose. From his background as a social entrepreneur with Groupe SOS to serving as the Director General of the McKinsey Foundation and a Ministerial Advisor, Nicolas has consistently worked alongside political, economic, and social actors to transform practices, engage citizens, and generate systemic change.

Nicolas’s mission is to foster collaboration among current and future leaders, forge national and international coalitions, and cultivate movements that mobilize all stakeholders to tackle significant social and environmental challenges in our society.

Ambitions for Purpose France:

Political and economic leaders become increasingly aware of their crucial role in driving systemic transformation towards a more prosperous, sustainable, and inclusive future. This rapidly evolving society necessitates the active participation of every citizen in addressing urgent global challenges. At Purpose France, we understand the importance of this collective effort. We are determined to advance social and environmental impact within economic, political, and nonprofit spheres.

Here are the three key ambitions of Purpose France under Nicolas Goudy’s leadership:

1. Accelerating CSR Commitments and Engaged Leadership:
   Purpose France aims to bring together and support economic leaders in accelerating their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) commitments. By fostering engaged leadership models, we encourage citizens and employees to actively participate in driving positive change. 
2. Establishing Coalitions for Social and Environmental Initiatives:
   Our team seeks to establish national, European, and international coalitions to support major foundations in implementing awareness campaigns and initiatives. These initiatives will focus on equal opportunities, diversity, biodiversity, and other critical issues to create lasting impact on a broader scale. 
3. Inspiring Citizen-Driven Movements for Systemic Change:
   Generating systemic change and nurturing citizen-driven movements are integral to Purpose. By rallying political, economic, and social actors around pressing issues, Purpose France aims to inspire people to get involved and take action. This includes implementing external awareness campaigns while addressing the measurement of real impact, a challenge that requires collective effort.

With ambitious goals to accelerate CSR commitments, establish coalitions for social and environmental initiatives, and inspire citizen-driven movements, Purpose is well-positioned to drive positive change in France.
