We may have different interpretations of this topic - in my mind, "sustainable leadership" is about actions to guide organisations to engage in more environmentally friendly practices (e.g., https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/2158244020969394), although I appreciate that it could be interpreted as "sustained leadership" meaning longevity in leadership. Feel free to get in touch to discuss.

This chapter has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is provided below, plus there is a general feedback page. Please also check the chapter's page history to check for editing changes made whilst reviewing through the chapter. Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.
Insufficient use of psychological theory about this topic.
Build more strongly on other leadership and sustainability related chapters (e.g., by incorporating embedded links to other chapters (e.g., see this category: Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Leadership).
Overall, the quality of written expression is below professional standard. UC Study Skills assistance is recommended to help improve writing skills.
Use permanent, rather than relative, time references. For example, instead of "20 years ago", refer to something like "at the beginning of the 21st century". In this way, the text will survive better into the future, without needing to be rewritten.
Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes.
Grammar
The grammar for many sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags). Grammar-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages. Another option is to share draft work with peers and ask for their assistance.
Use double (not single) quotation marks "to introduce a word or phrase used as an ironic comment, as slang, or as an invented or coined expression; use quotation marks only for the first occurrence of the word or phrase, not for subsequent occurrences" (APA 7th ed., 2020, p. 159).
Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numerals (e.g., 10).
Figures and tables
APA style is used for Figure captions.
Each Table and Figure is referred to at least once within the main text.
Refer to each Table and Figure using APA style (e.g., do not use italics, check and correct capitalisation
Citations use correct APA style.
References are not in full APA style. For example:
Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. # No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Embedding in-text links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.

The accompanying multimedia presentation has been marked according to the marking criteria. Marks are available via the unit's UCLearn site. Written feedback is provided below, plus see the general feedback page. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below. If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.
The chapter title but not the sub-title is used in the name of the presentation - the latter would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
A minimal written description of the presentation is provided. Consider expanding.
A link to the book chapter is provided.
A link from the book chapter is provided.
The presentation is incorrectly categorised as being for kids.
Image sources and their copyright status are not provided. Either provide details about the image sources and their copyright licenses in the presentation description or remove the presentation.
A copyright license for the presentation is not provided.
The chapter is now over the maximum word count, so some of the additional content was ignored for marking purposes. For example, a lot of unnecessary general material was added to the Overview. Focus more directly on the topic (sustainable leadership) instead of the more general issues around sustainability.
The focus questions have been improved.
A case study was added, but it had nothing to do with sustainable leadership.
Some general leadership theory is added, but it is not explained how this relates to sustainable leadership.
No additional coverage of relevant research has been added.
Some improvements have been made to spelling and grammar.
Additional resources have been added to the See also section.
