When Sustainability Leadership Really Matters

Not all companies, in fact very few, have a uniform business sustainability understanding across the entire organization.  This lack of cohesion is often an opportunity for leadership to really shine.  By facilitating sustainability discussion, leaders open the door to inclusion, reduced resistance, alignment, and a smoother transition of sustainable business change.
