Organizational Culture and Leadership for Sustainability from a Work and Organizational Psychology perspective

In the past two decades, sustainability has gained significant attention, influencing global agendas. This paper examines the relationship between Governance for Sustainability (GfS) and organizational dynamics through the lens of Work and Organizational Psychology (WOP). While existing literature predominantly focuses on macro-level governance, this study addresses the overlooked micro and meso levels. By exploring dimensions such as culture and leadership, it sheds light on critical issues for organizations navigating sustainable change. Emphasis is placed on the "human factor" and its connection to WOP. Implications for research and practice are discussed, with a focus on advancing the GfS field through WOP themes.
