Sustainability The Leadership Challenge
Choose the Right Style • Leader as learner, leader as partner • Identify your leaders and support • Distribute leadership / bottom up • ‘Walking the talk’ – we need to lead!
Clarify & Structure • Be systemic but responsive; simplify • Develop Policy/Strategy; be aspirational but realistic • Use frameworks, e.g. the 4Cs – Culture, Campus, Curriculum and Community • Establish Sustainability Forum/include students • Use existing groups
Involve Everyone • ‘From canteen to boardroom’ • It’s about values not skills • Start with the staff / open door • Model behaviour
