Sustainability Leadership for Greener Health and Care: Strand 4: Developing Collective Impact
Become a climate conscious leader and protect the planet for future generations.
Discover how to create a shared vision, expand your understanding of systems and explore how you can make a difference.
To halt and reverse the impact of climate change, we need to act now, but we cannot do it alone. No single person can turn the tide on climate change, so as climate conscious leaders we need to develop a shared vision of a sustainable future and work with others to achieve it. We shall explore stakeholder engagement, the contribution of networks in building momentum, and the power of authentic leadership. We will see how you can engage others through storytelling, and explore how to support others through sharing impact stories.
What topics will you cover?
- Week 1: Vision and networks
- Week 2: Authentic leadership
- Week 3: Plans, methods and evaluation
