Change-makers who are driving the transition to a circular economy are working in a highly disruptive environment. We know that business as usual will not lead to a sustainable future, that we need unprecedented, systemic solutions that support a social and environmental transformation.
In this context, many leaders are asking themselves how they can lead themselves, their teams and their organisations, and how they can drive social change.
