How Young Entrepreneurs Can Get A Leadership Head Start
Entrepreneurship requires more than money and motivation. Here are some tips for young entrepreneurs to get a head start with leadership.
The business education sector is a prime target for raising awareness of the need for sustainability. There are many reasons for this:
Business schools are responsible for training future leaders in business, government and civil society to be more sustainable. They form part of a network that includes business leaders, policymakers and civil society actors. Business schools can play a critical role in promoting the uptake of sustainability principles and practices by these groups.
They are active participants in knowledge creation, sharing and transfer activities that are crucial for the success of sustainability initiatives.
The business education sector has a key role to play in influencing public policy on sustainability issues. It is also vital to help companies make sustainability part of their strategy and operations, so they can create value through their products and services while reducing their environmental footprint as well as their risk exposure to climate change impacts such as extreme weather events or water scarcity.
