Jo Jolly & Donnie Mac Nicol: The Race to Net Zero - are you on track with you...PMIUKChapter
“It’s not as bad as you think – it’s worse.” Sir James Bevan, Chief Executive, Environment Agency
The Project Data Analytics Task Force recently launched an initiative to prompt and inform project and data professionals on the actions they can take in relation to climate change, and how they can leverage their influence.
On the basis that you cannot control what you cannot measure, the Task Force has developed a Carbon Self-Evaluation tool. This allows benchmarking in and across sectors. The tool encourages bottom-up action while providing data that will challenge the effectiveness of top-down strategies and policies.
A key point is that the biggest untapped potential to contribute is through using data analytics to drive out waste in every aspect of project delivery. The objective is an environment in which ‘climate’ is inherent in every decision we make – to maximise the benefit for the environment and people, and to minimise detrimental impact. The challenge however is to overcome human and commercial barriers to this.

Martin Paver: How data trusts will unlock Net Zero goalsPMIUKChapter
Delivering net zero is much more than decarbonising projects. Project professionals have a key role to play in driving up delivery productivity, avoiding waste and delay. We can accelerate the energy transition. By improving project certainty we make projects more investable, which attracts funding for net zero initiatives. By pooling our hard won experience within a data trust we fundamentally change the game.
To tackle global and societal challenges like the SDG’s and Climate Change - we need collaborations at a scale beyond individual projects and organisations.
We need to invest in building our portfolio capabilities - so that we can have scalable impact and work across the whole system for transformation.
By orchestrating entire innovation ecosystems, we can bridge and create coherence between the adaptive and practical efforts that are at play. This session will focus on building an understanding of the capabilities and capacities that are needed in organisations to work in systems transformations.
In the Innovation Ecosystems for Transformation session of the States of Change Learning Festival 2020, Mikael Seppälä from Sitra Lab spoke about Orchestrating Innovation Ecosystems
(and Portfolios) for Transformation.

How project managers influence sustainable development.PMIUKChapter
With COP26 looming ever closer, the project management profession needs to accelerate developing our knowledge and skills to align our operations with our ambitions. Arup Director Rob Leslie-Carter joins us to discuss the route to achieve net zero through programmes and projects, and how every project manager can influence sustainable development.
Speaker
Rob Leslie-Carter is a Director with Arup based in London. He has worked around the world with Arup for 28 years, and specialises in the planning, set-up, leadership and delivery of complex infrastructure and property projects both on client side and as leader of multidisciplinary teams.
His project track record includes the Beijing Olympics Water Cube, the Laban Dance School in Deptford, New Acton Nishi in Canberra, Greenhouse by Joost in Sydney, and currently Europe’s biggest project High Speed 2.
Rob is a regular public speaker on leadership, project management, organisational culture, the future of work, and the road to Net Zero, and is a guest lecturer at the Bartlett at UCL and previously at University of New South Wales.
On 8 February 2019, the Environmental Futures & Big Data Impact Lab (Impact Lab), held an official launch event for the Plymouth Business Community. Led by the University of Plymouth, Plymouth College of Art & Plymouth Marine Laboratory, the event was an opportunity to learn more about the free, multi-disciplinary support available from the three aforementioned partners, along with the University of Exeter, the Met Office, Exeter City Futures and Rothamsted Research - the other four organisations which make up the Impact Lab partnership.

This is a template that MBA or undergraduate business students can use for case study presentations for class or case competitions. It's bare bones, meant to explain the flow of information and suggest some frameworks to use to discuss the problem in a case.
