Advancing Responsible Leadership
We develop and inspire the responsible decision-makers of tomorrow to advance sustainable development. We are leaders and cross-sector collaborators in advancing the role, dynamic and impact of organizations in the creation of sustainable social, environmental, and economic value.
Responsible leadership at Sprott means that leaders at all levels harness the potential of business to increase our shared prosperity through the creation of meaningful
employment and the development of goods and services that contribute to the well-being of humanity. It means fostering sustainable business models that are net positive
for the planet and people who reside on it.
Responsible leadership is about environmental sustainability, genuine inclusion, investing for impact, ethical decision-making and innovating for good. We practice what we preach, creating an equitable, inclusive and healthy workplace and learning environments and policies to encourage environmental and social responsibility across our operations, teaching and scholarship.
