Polly Courtice was Founder Director of the University of the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership, which she led for thirty-two years.
Polly’s passion for living and working sustainably was inspired by growing up in South Africa and nurtured by working closely with the University of Cambridge and (the then) Prince Charles over three decades to persuade business leaders of, initially, the importance of sustainability, then, later, to help them make sustainability the centre of their long-term strategic planning. Her message and illustrations are urgent and hopeful – as long as we rise up against complacency.
