The last few days, I've seen countless tributes rolling in for Dr. Goodall, from worldwide conservation organizations to everyday citizens alike. Many of them shared how she touched their lives and inspired them to do better for the planet and for our fellow creatures. One tribute, shared by M. Sanjayan, the former CEO of Conservation International, particularly caught my eye. Mr. Sanjayan dug a little deeper into what made Jane Goodall such an effective communicator for conservation. He summed up three bullet items as describing "Jane's way:"
1.) Speak unapologetically from the heart and tell stories. She was a great storyteller
2.) Avoid pointing fingers. Jane knew we all contribute to the problem, and wasn't interested in finding enemies.
3.) Remain relentlessly optimistic. Reasons for hope is how she called it.
