This book sets out to unpack the human skills, qualities and practices necessary for sustainability leadership and change-making in these complex and urgent times.

Told through the authors’ own experiences of being involved in sustainability and change processes over many years, as well as their shared experience in sustainable leadership education, the book explores the intersections between leadership, sustainability, complexity thinking and more. The chapters present a theoretically grounded framework for understanding sustainability leadership – from creativity to collaboration, self-reflection to dialogue across diversity, fostering care and courage, and how we can enable and build these qualities in ourselves and others. Peppered through the book are also conversation excerpts with other sustainability leaders who share insights into their real-life experiences of change-making – the messy, the complex and the beautiful.

A must read for anyone interested in making change – social change makers, business educators, government officials, and other practitioners interested in creating change towards sustainability, whether that be in a formal leadership role or through informal efforts to shift the system and improve the lives and wellbeing of people and planet in partnership.
