Earth Heir style: ecosystem, ethics, enterprise.

At Saturday’s launch of The Good List Guide by Earth Heir, a smiling volunteer handed over a postcard with one simple question:

“Are you good?”

That question stayed with us.

Since 2013, Earth Heir has championed social enterprise by enabling marginalised communities and by supporting businesses that create positive impact through ethical enterprise.

Now, The Good List Guide takes this mission a step further - a discovery platform for good things:
Eat
See
Do
Shop
Stay.

More than a guide, it’s an ecosystem built on collaboration, community and conscious enterprise.

As Earth Heir CEO Sasibai Kimis reminded us, genuine impact happens when good people and good businesses work together - without ego, without agenda, but instead with shared purpose.

In the heart of KL, amid its colour, character and creativity, this is the kind of enterprise we need more of: ethical, human and hopeful.

Are you good?

You already know the answer.

A legacy of learning - David Attenborough

London honours David Attenborough on his 100th birthday Sir David, who lives in Richmond upon Thames, often speaks of his affection for London.

Forward-looking - on Firm Foundations

This month, Language Works is happy to be starting innovative programmes, while renewing collaborations with strong partners dedicated to learning, development, and employability.

Relevance of programmes and range of services provided are always essential parts of LW’s offerings. But so are long-term relationships - and they do not go much further back for LW Director Brian Cracknell than International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) and the Institute of Diplomacy and Foreign Relations (IDFR).

Very pleased and looking forward to working with both again.

Collaborating to Transform Learning

In the rapidly shifting landscape of learning and development, collaboration is no longer a bonus - it’s a strategic necessity.

At Language Works, we’ve seen how collaborative ventures spark new energy and tangible results:

1. In partnership with Rani Wemel’s visionary enterprise Learning Through Technology (LTT), our interactive session with trainers from Institute of Diplomacy and Foreign Relations (IDFR) unlocked creative, practical ways to use AI tools to deepen learning experiences and participant engagement.
2. Confidence in Action - Last week, Brian Cracknell worked with the Malaysian Institute of Development for Professionals (MIDP) in Iskandar Puteri, enabling public-sector participants to communicate clearly and confidently in their presentations and feedback.
3. New Pathways - At the launch of Project Excellence Partners (PXP) in Cyberjaya, CEO Alex Zulkarnain set out a bold vision to elevate project consultancy and professional practice through strategic collaborations.
4. At International Greentech & Eco Products Exhibition and Conference Malaysia (IGEM), we saw firsthand how partnerships can drive green innovation, create opportunities, and expand ASEAN-wide impact.

The future of L&D? It’s collaborative, augmented (not artificial), and action-driven. By joining forces - across industries, borders, and disciplines – we not only transform; we co-create a new learning world.
