Our team here at Warp It recently welcomed some incredible news, news that really puts us on a global stage.

The ‘University Impact Rankings 2019’ was released by the ‘World University Rankings’ and looks at many of the Sustainable Development Goals. It featured data on more than 200 universities from more than 56 countries around the world. ‘SDG 12: responsible consumption and production’ is the SDG most relevant to Warp It due to the nature of our business- making assets last longer, therefore reducing resource use. 

Making Reuse & Repair Normal

Our vision is where reuse repair and redistribution of surplus assets, furniture and equipment mainstream within and between organisations IS NORMAL!.

Our objective is to give you the tools and tips to help you do that in your organisation, toen, city and region.

High praise!!

We know you are busy and we know it is very hard to get away from work, so we squeeze a great deal into these short sessions. 

In these workshops we have 15-20 minute slots where you hear from procurement, waste, facilities management and sustainability experts talking about their reuse journey and how they have overcome barriers.

We split these presentations up with quick breakout sessions, where you will meet and talk with colleagues from other organisations who are also streamlining reuse. 

Everyone has a story. Everyone.

Storytelling isn’t just reserved for bedtime rituals, it’s one of the most powerful ways to increase motivation and inspiration in others.

Stories bring things to life. They tap into our imagination to do and see things in a different way.

They help us understand and touch our emotions. The best stories make us think: “How can I do that?” “What would I do in that situation?” “What would it be like if I could achieve that?”

To help you channel your inner storyteller, read our tips and tools to get inspired.

As author, Robin Moore, said: “Inside each of us is a natural-born storyteller, waiting to be released.”

If you need help to donate more assets into schools and charities then Ben can help you!

Ben Lynch is the Partnership Manager at Warp It. In his role, he is responsible for facilitating the safe and smooth passage of reusable assets from our valued customers to our partners in the charity and school sectors.

We’ve grabbed Ben for a quick interview so that you can learn more about what is going on behind the scenes.

Ask successful leaders and managers what the secret of their success is, and chances are that they’ll tell you they had great mentors.

Mentoring is a one-to-one relationship where a more experienced or more knowledgeable person helps to guides a less experienced or less knowledgeable person. Effective mentoring can be rewarding for both mentees and mentors. If you’re lucky, you’ll have the chance to be both!

Here, we share some great tips and tools so you can begin the exciting journey to do all that’s necessary to attract, and offer, awesome, high-level help.

As Yoda said: “Always two there are, no more, no less. A master and an apprentice.”

Virtually anyone can benefit from having a mentor, and even some of the most iconic and inspiring individuals had to start somewhere.

We are pleased to introduce this case study from Waikato University in New Zealand, where their decision to use Warp It has caught local media attention. This case study has been forged by quotes from Sustainability Manager Rachael Goddard’s interview on RNZ.nz.

Within an organisation that wants to make a change, there has to be an individual who can lead and take responsibility for that change.

Culture change requires the driven implementation and promotion of the new method from within.
