Colleagues, In November 2016, 60 leaders of business sustainability centres from five continents gathered at INSEAD to explore shared challenges related to centre management, teaching, research and outreach. (See the wonderful group photo.) The workshop was an initiative of the Sustainability Centres Community (SCC), which is managed by the Network for Business Sustainability (NBS). We had amazing conversations and participants shared what they learned about running centres. In an effort to raise our collective capacity and abilities, we thought we'd synthesize and share those learnings more broadly. The NBS team hopes you find these materials helpful: · What I Wish I Knew before Launching a Sustainability Centre. Take the online survey to share your advice on running a centre, which we will share with this listserv. · How to Manage a Sustainability Centre · How Sustainability Centres Can Support Effective Teaching · How Sustainability Centres Can Support Research that Impacts Practice The Sustainability Centres Community is a group of 135 sustainability centres from business schools around the world that hope to advance sustainability. If your school or centre is not already a member, we do hope you'll join our community. Together, we can do more. Sincerely, Tima Bansal Executive Director, Network for Business Sustainability Professor, Ivey Business School _______________________________________________________________________
