In terms of conceptualising ‘organisational sustainability’, we draw upon Colbert and Kurucz (2007) colloquial definition
of sustainability as being to “keep the business going”. Wales (2013) states another frequently used term in this context
refers to the “future proofing” of organizations.
Credit will be given to those who demonstrate a comprehensive understating of contemporary
leadership issues and literature which draws on a wide scope of materials.
However, please be aware that there are 4 elements to be covered in this assignment – the leadership
theories element and the 3 leadership topic areas – please make sure you balance your assignment to
reflect these (i.e. do not allocate too much of your word count to any one area).
