The Key to Relevant Leadership is Continuous Learning

The business world is changing so quickly that it’s often hard to know how to keep up and help your employees cope with the pace of change. For leaders, it’s crucial to remain relevant in order to be heard and valued. Even if you have great ideas, a great mission and a vision of the future, if you’re not relevant, no one will listen, and you won’t be successful as a leader.

Storytelling for Sustainability – It’s Time for Corporate Leaders to Gather ‘Round the Campfire

The term ‘greenwashing’ might be officially outdated. In 2016 the number of companies making unmerited PR splashes over sustainability is far outweighed by those who are taking significant strides forward and not talking about it.
