​Abstract:

The Adaptive Sustainability business management approach was developed pre 2020 when businesses were being disrupted at slow burn, continuous rates and by multiple factors, including globalisation, the need for environmental repair and stakeholder activism, to name just a few. That volatile business context now pales into insignificance in these times of global pandemic, community lockdown and hyper business disruption. Adaptive Sustainability for business management is an innovative approach to business leadership that encourages a shift in mindset, so that organisations are able to adapt more readily to change, and foster development of new skillsets to address today’s complex challenges.
