Abstract:

This chapter explores the challenges that achieving corporate sustainability poses for the nature of organizational leadership and the selection and development of present and future leaders. We identify the following key challenges in moving to a sustainable society: The urgency and scale of the environmental crisis demands enacting leadership processes that serve widespread transformational change. The exponential growth in complexity of organizational purpose sets the ‘new wave’ leadership challenge to achieve the sometimes conflicting SDGs. Governmental requirements for sustainability and climate disclosure and other sustainability risks (laws, regulations, incentives, and penalties) vary widely across political units (nations, states, and municipalities). Some organizations may have reached different stages along the path to corporate sustainability in different divisions, departments, and units. Within one enterprise, employee awareness and knowledge of sustainability issues vary widely.
