Caleño & Leading for Sustainability
Season 4, Ep. 1
•
We’re back!
And leading the way with our first episode is Dr Shima Barakat, Director of the Entrepreneurship for Sustainability Programme at the University of Cambridge.
She’ll be talking to us about Leading for Sustainability: What do we need to lead a transformation towards sustainable systems? While we ease ourselves gently back in with a non-alcoholic glass of Caleño.
And of course, we’ll be questioning all those business buzzwords...
Cheers!
