This Guide is designed to help sustainability leaders to develop compelling business cases which, over time will embed sustainability at the top of their organisation and bring about systemic change in the way business decisions are made.
We released today the Making the Business Case for Sustainability - A Guide for Sustainability Leaders. This Guide is designed to help sustainability leaders to make a successful case for sustainability in a Further and Higher Education context, to embed sustainability at the top of their organisation and bring about systemic change in the way business decisions are made.
It provides critical opportunities for value creation and risk mitigation at a time when universities and colleges are looking for ways to become more resilient in an increasingly volatile environment.
The Guide continues the important work we have started in 2018 regarding the institutional benefits available when sustainability becomes a ‘top team, top table issue’ and one that complements and enriches current agendas.
How can this Guide help you?
The content was developed with expert input from sector leaders who have real experience of delivering change in their organisations.
Find out more and read the Guide here.
