Sustainability is a complex concept, and the challenge of
understanding it and applying it to a diverse, multi-agent,
organisational setting with its potentially conflicting priorities
cannot be underestimated. Leadership for Sustainability in Higher
Education provides key learning from the authors' extensive
academic, leadership and professional experience in this area,
supplemented with reference to key learning from other leaders and
institutions. Janet Fraser-Haddock, Peter Rands and Stephen
Scoffham bring together the wide range of influences and
considerations to succeed, including: * an understanding of the
core constructs of leadership theory and sustainability * the range
of perspectives through which to view and value sustainability *
successful activities and actions undertaken by sustainability
leaders in the higher education sector * models and methods to
successfully implement sustainability that are new to the sector *
influencers on the sustainability agenda, whether policy- or
demand-led, external or internal * barriers to and enablers of
success for leaders at individual, institutional and sector levels
These factors all combine to provide a framework for the reader
within which to consider leadership for sustainability, both at an
individual level and within the higher education culture and
organisational norms. The authors provide a theoretical
underpinning of key concepts, supplemented by examples of practice
across the sector, both within the UK and internationally. Case
studies from the UK, Australia, North America and India all bring
to life the key opportunities and challenges of leading the
sustainability agenda across a range of higher education
institutions.
