Anything but individual action is magic and flowery language. A system, a group, a corporation, an institution is made of individuals. How does ANY action start if not initiated by individuals? I will concede that cleaning up your own behavior may not move the needle much, but changing "the system" still requires individuals to take actions. What are you waiting for? Some magical hive mind to fix things?
