Josh Coombes is a hairdresser, community hero and movement maker. In 2015, he started reaching out to the homeless in his city, offering them free haircuts and showcasing the results using the hashtag #DoSomethingForNothing. He passionately believes in giving dignity to the homeless and how pushing past stereotypes and preconceptions allows us to find real connections with people. This DoSomething movement was born from the idea that we can all do something for someone — for nothing.
Today, Josh travels to new countries to tell the stories of those who feel unheard. After several years of building a social movement, Do Something For Nothing, Joshua provides a fresh perspective on how we approach charity and volunteering our time. Through personal experiences and stories, he demonstrates why a commitment to a bigger mission benefits everybody.
Whatever industry your company is in, there exists a need to give back to your broader community. But where to begin? You Might not be able to solve a particular issue overnight, but you can start a journey to become as successful at doing good as you are at doing business. Joshua believes these two things are interlinked and that embodying this ethos can create profound shifts in the overall well-being of your team, which ripples out to every aspect of your business, including your clients. Every team, big or small, has a way to connect their skills, products or services to help people and this planet. Your team will come away from the talk with new motivation to make a difference with the opportunities available and a greater connection to our common humanity and the role they can play to contribute.
