Leaders are in at the deep end.
In recent years, momentum and stakeholder pressure has built around the world for companies large and small to make ever bolder Net Zero and other ESG commitments. In turn, this has led to a rapid increase in the need for senior sustainability leaders. In fact, there’s been a 4x increase in the past 6 years of newly created Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO) and Sustainability Director roles at major companies.
Many of this next generation of sustainability leaders have the technical grasp of the sustainability agenda, but are in at the ‘leadership deep end’ having to quickly build influence and alliances at the highest levels to win hearts and minds, align resources, embed sustainability into corporate strategy and drive results. Just as importantly, they need to work on their ‘inner game’ to develop the resilience, calmness and composure to cope under significant pressure.
Similarly, CEOs face unprecedented risks and opportunities, presenting many complex dilemmas and trade-offs to resolve, and stakeholders to satisfy.
Every business leader is trying to figure out how to successfully navigate the sustainability agenda in a way which creates new value, capitalises on opportunities and mitigates risks.
