Summary
This volume examines the importance of leadership in developing an effective sustainability strategy. It defines the sustainability mindset and surveys the primary motivations, conditions, or environment(s) that cause leaders to embrace sustainable practices. As described in the UN Sustainable Development Goal 8, embracing the sustainability mindset will lead to greater productivity and promote economic growth. Organized into themes of organizational operations, leadership competencies, and leadership practices, the chapters, written by contributors representing global perspectives, tackle topics such as strategy, culture, and leadership styles in developing a new form of mindfulness for leaders as well as organizations. Recognizing the need for accelerated change in organizations as well as society at large, this book presents scholars with a framework for establishing a mindset for sustainability to foster much-needed transformative leadership. Aixa Ritz recently retired from Fairleigh Dickinson University, USA as an Associate Professor. She entered academia after thirty years in the corporate environment, with the last ten in two Fortune 100 corporations. Her research interest is in sustainable tourism development. Isabel Rimanoczy is the convener of the UN PRME Working Group on the Sustainability Mindset. Her research and teaching are focused on how to develop a mindset for sustainability, and she recently authored The Sustainability Mindset Principles: A Guide to Developing a Mindset for a Better World.
