Chapter 2 The S-t-r-e-t-c-h Agenda and 12 Sectors that Play Long Panel 4 5 Dimensions of high-FQ leadership Dimension
1 Change Incremental Ô Systemic
2 Scope Narrower Ô Wider
Description
This first dimension refers to the type of change desired. In times of fundamental shifts in the economy, we need to change the focus from incremental to system change. If the first 25 years of the sustainability agenda have defaulted to citizenship, responsibility and accountability goals, the ultimate aim was always systemic change—which now looks set to be central to the agenda in the next quarter century.
Here we aim to measure the breadth of organizational horizons, networks and thinking. In times of intense change, focusing in harder on what has been done in the past can be a cardinal error. Instead, opening horizons for a 360-degree perspective—and creating partnerships that help migration into new domains.
