Co-organized with: Business in the Community Ireland (BITCI)
The business world, with its capacity for innovation, agility, and resources, is ideally poised to pioneer widespread change in order to transition to more sustainable forms of industry and economy. Leadership from business is essential, not only to mitigate severe environmental risks but also to protect economic stability, and the World Economic Forum consistently ranks climate change, and associated hazards, as one of the top global risks to businesses.
Many business leaders are moving away from “business as usual” and looking to the future to enact new sustainable business models. However, the transition will be complex and the challenge of moving toward systemic change should not be underestimated.
Leadership sustainability capabilities need to be developed and this raises the question of what these sustainability capabilities for leaders actually “look like”.
In order to meet this need and answer this question, a consortium of stakeholders, from Business in Community Ireland and its members, Maynooth University and Skillnet came together to co-create a “Sustainability Capabilities for Leaders (SCALE)” diagnostic. The goal was to create a diagnostic that offers an evidence-based starting point to equip business leaders with insights into the top leadership team’s view on their sustainability capabilities and priorities for capability development.
This European Roundtable will introduce the various elements of the diagnostic, the outcomes with pilot participants highlighting Current and Target level of Capabilities for Sustainability, and recommendations for leaders that are applicable across all sectors.
