To make meaningful progress in sustainability, organisations need an effective sustainability culture. This requires structure to support change:<\/p>\n
\u2022 A Green Team with members representing all parts of the organisation\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Buy-in at Board and senior management, with sustainability sponsors on the board, and in the senior management team, and regular communication with the Green Team<\/p>\n \u2022 A Green network of staff across the organisation, empowered to feed in ideas, react and communicate<\/p>\n To make purposeful headway, the Green Team needs to develop a plan and programme for achieving Green Book standards, obtain buy-in from the Board and senior management, and consult and communicate across the organisation.<\/p>\n \n Sustainability is a collective responsibility, and organisational change can only be achieved if everyone feels part of it. Everyone will have a role to play in developing ideas, adapting working practices, and bringing expertise to different challenges. And change will never take root unless it\u2019s adopted by the people who deliver it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \n \u2022 Develop a communications strategy to share targets and achievements.<\/p>\n \u2022 Host a environmental visioning workshops to share ideas, using the Theatre Green Book to guide the discussion. Encourage contribution from all levels of the organisation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Clear and easy-to-follow climate literacy training is fundamental for people to understand the language and jargon. Appropriate training and strategies to engage people within your organisation will also have an impact on operational carbon reduction. (Many of those involved in curating this guidance have found climate literacy training beneficial.)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Provide sustainability induction for new starters. This could be as simple as a list of your Green-Team members, scheduled meetings, sustainability goals, current actions and plans for the future.<\/p>\n
