Leading change in the climate action space has personal and professional aspects that are interconnected and rely on an understanding of self, other, and the common. The activities in this unit are designed to support your thinking about and refining your own response to the question of what climate action leadership means to you. This will build on the work you have already done in CALS 505 where you designed a climate leadership plan specific to a particular project or initiative. This unit includes Assignment 1: Short Term Leadership Development Goals. These goals are designed to help you reflect further on what you learned about your leadership style and orientation in CALS 505 and where you see yourself going as a leaders in the climate action space. To spur this reflection, you will use the Climate Action Competency Framework to identify and self-assess where you have existing strengths and potential gaps in your climate action competency profile. For those of you engaging in the Practitioner-Scholar stream, the work you do in this course will also (or may) inform the work you do in CALS 691, as you build your professional portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
