The world is on fire and in desperate need of volunteer firefighters. If you’ve ever wondered if you have a purpose, if there’s a place in the world in need of your unique genius, the answer is yes. And the right time to step into your purpose and explore the path of your potential is now. But you don’t have to do this work alone—and you shouldn’t do it without taking care of yourself first. Burnout rates in the helping professions are off the charts, but we won’t make progress “out there” until we take full ownership of whatever we’re feeling “in here.”Becky Margiotta’s Impact with Integrity: Repair the World Without Breaking Yourself is a call to action, but also an invitation to reclaim your agency and mobilize your creativity in order to enact meaningful, efficient, and effective social change. With authenticity, grit, and grace, Margiotta lays out a proven step-by-step framework for doing the inner work that is necessary for advancing social change. Examining yourself is key to supercharging your power to make the world a better place. In this essential guide, she weaves joy and well-being into the work of sustainable and transformational leadership.
Not just for nonprofit leaders, social workers, activists, educators, and health professionals, Impact with Integrity is for all of us inspired to do good and make effective change in the world.
Want to spark change? Start with yourself—and this book. Funny, probing, inspiring, and at times wonderfully blunt, Margiotta’s work is an absolute must-read for world-changers.”—Dan Heath, New York Times bestselling author of Upstream and coauthor of Switch and Made to Stick
“Among other things, Becky tackles the essential inner work of leadership, including the need to wrestle with our conditioning so that we can lead from a place of authenticity and love. If you are a leader, and we are all leaders if only and most importantly in our own lives, you will benefit from taking the time to sit with this book and the support it offers your leadership practice.”—Tema Okun, author of “White Supremacy Culture” and “White Supremacy Culture—Still Here”
“Impact with Integrity is the quintessential book for social change leaders and anyone who wants to live and move through the world from a place of authenticity and liberation. Becky Margiotta’s framing and facilitation of content throughout the text allows for an integrated head, heart, and hands experience as she effortlessly blends theory and practice in service of becoming better humans and contributing to a more just world. This book invites you to think, feel, act, and most importantly to grow into the unlimited potential awaiting you in each and every moment. It is a text I know I will come back to again and again because it has so much to offer for my professional health and personal wholeness.”—Dr. Michelle Pledger, director of liberation, Center for Research on Equity and Innovation
“Impact with Integrity is for anyone and everyone who has ever wanted to make a difference. It reminds us that in order to transform the world around us we must begin with our own transformation. Becky asks the tough questions that get at what we really want, how we might be getting in our own way, and how we can harness the amazing power inside all of us to make the world a better place.”—Mari Jones, project codirector of the Deeper Learning Hub
