Abstract

The role of a leader is to unlock the possibilities within each individual, be the nexus of information for their surroundings, and communicate ideas verbally and nonverbally to make the entire team stronger. Energy strategist is an emerging leadership role for those who wish to grapple with the realities of sustainability and climate change. These leaders need to tame the ambiguous uncertainties of a company’s exposure to climate risks over decade-long time horizons and help define a new vision for the future. Although energy subject matter expertise is necessary to understand technical tradeoffs, leadership skills are just as important to mobilize a team to operationalize decisions. Part III explores concepts of organizations, decision-making, and communication in three chapters.
