Course description

Achieving corporate sustainability is a challenge that will increasingly occupy the attention of CEOs, senior executive teams, change agents and key stakeholders of twenty-first century organisations. The debate about the path forward will be protracted, noisy and tough. The resolution to fundamental dilemmas involved will come, not primarily through words, but through actions of those corporations that see opportunities inherent in the emerging ethos of sustainability.This ethos is already apparent in increasing pressures on corporations from governments, shareholders and political interest groups to change wasteful and destructive practices. This course focuses on how managers can implement effective strategies in relation to sustainability issues in their organisation. Topics include cultural change, value versus values, leadership in sustainability. The focus of this course is much more on the change strategies - incremental and transformational - required to shift organizations towards sustainability. In particular, the course examines the role played by business managers, CEOs and other stakeholders as change agents for sustainability.
