Suse501 Sustainability Leadership|Credible Sources Assessment Answer

The Case Study Analysis is an individual written report that requires you to evaluate leadership in response to the COVID-19 pandemic from the perspective of sustainability. The analysis draws on the concepts, theories, and frameworks of the course to demonstrate a clear and in-depth understanding of the societal issues brought about by COVID-19 and the specific context in which the leader operates. It presents insights on what it means to be a leader in the sustainability field. Each student will choose a specific world leader (only one) to focus the analysis on. Suggested leaders are Jacinda Ardern (New Zealand), Donald Trump (USA), Xi Jinping (China), Angela Merkel (Germany), Emmanuel Macron (France), Scott Morrison (Australia), Justin Trudeau (Canada). Students will identify contextual issues and situations that have emerged in light of COVID-19 by conducting secondary research -- gathering online information and publicly available data on their chosen leader. Students will then critically examine the leader’s response to these issues and situations based on the concept of sustainability.The analysis must be supported by evidence from credible sources and guided by the concepts of sustainability, systems-thinking, and leadership.
