Team 5 Presentation Owen, Rushil, Josh, Xiaohan, Jerry Problem Solution Lack of organization in the Office of Sustainability Develop leadership within the Office of Sustainability Rationale For Choice Missing Director of Sustainability Org Chart: No position Operations and Resilience Cause Neglect Org Chart structure Potential of reporting to CFO Effects Public Opinion Student faith Difficult to achieve goals Example: Car pool forum STARS Rating : Expired Website structure, shows to be outdated Our rationale for coming to the conclusion that RRU is missing structure in the Office of Sustainability is due to the confirmation from the HR department providing the schools organization chart, and their recognition that there is no current individual in that role. Also they gave us confirmation that the department is overseen by the Operations and Resilience Office. This tell us that sustainability is being implemented by a department that is already trying to operate they school as a whole, and thus leaving obvious time restraints to focus on RRU sustainability. We determined that the causes for this lack of leadership is due to neglect, and possibly because of the structure that the org chart. Where there is no sitting sustainability position currently. Effects of this, could cause the school to obtain a negative public image. Student body could lose faith in the legitimacy of their seriousness towards sustainability. And goals will be more difficult to achieve without a leader driving the bus. And example would be the schools failure to meet their own goal of achieving a carpool forum by 2016. It appears they attempted but if you try and open up the link it give you “page not found error”. Additionally while reviewing the schools website we found it to lack structure when trying to obtain information from their sustainability page, as its videos and pictures were outdated and wouldn’t load. And when you are to click on the ”Office of Sustainability“ link, it opens up a article about “how to change the Bee’s, and to BEE the change” References Royal Roads University. (2015).

(2019) Organizational chart. Human Resource Department RRU Organizational Chart At RRU There is no specific sustainability department/office, only environmental officer which has nothing to do with sustainability. There is no one reporting to VP or President, which as we know is important to making an impact. Based on this, our recommendation for hiring a program head is changing the structure of the RRU organizational chart to make sustainability a bigger priority, maximizing its effectiveness and our impact as a school.
