ADVANCE PRAISE FOR LEAD FOR THE PLANET

“You can pick up any number of books on the scientific problem of climate change and the economic or technological solutions, but what we need most right now is leadership. That is what this book is: an accessible dive into social science for the much-needed tools to guide our society, our organizations, and ourselves towards a bold and strong approach to sustainability. Pick up this book and play your role in helping ‘Team Humanity’ step up to save the planet.”

Andrew J. Hoffman, Holcim (US) Professor of Sustainable Enterprise, University of Michigan

“Rae André provides a practical map of what needs to be done to lead change for a sustainable future. Drawn from social science research in the fields of change management and leadership, her five practices offer a road map for individuals to lead the transition through the current climate crisis and energy revolution to save our planet for future generations.”

Nancy E. Landrum, Professor, Quinlan School of Business & Institute of Environmental Sustainability, Loyola University Chicago

“André’s Lead for the Planet shows concerned citizens how to become leaders who can address the twin challenges of climate change and energy evolution. The author skillfully blends the psychology of leadership and influence with a wide array of facts, trends, and positions about the natural environment into five practices that anyone can adopt: crafting a compelling vision for change, rallying others around it, and developing and implementing actionable plans to confront the energy-related issues causing climate change. It’s an accessible must-read for any aspiring climate leader.”
