| description | Grand challenges, such as global warming and social inequality, are evaluative, complex and uncertain global problems that manifest locally and operate across different scales and geographical locations. Addressing these challenges requires deep knowledge of affected communities and the broader value systems that shape them. Over time, research has focused on leadership styles, intra- and interorganizational mechanisms that enable actors to deal with the multidimensionality proper of grand societal challenges. However, more research is needed on how leaders adapt their leadership style over time to mobilize support among stakeholders to address grand challenges, how they change their perception of themselves and the challenges they are addressing. Furthermore, we need a deeper understanding of how organizations can deal with actors operating at different scales and locations as well as of the conditions that favor the implementation of innovative solutions to address grand challenges. The objective of this symposium consists in addressing these issues and in providing a comprehensive view of the different challenges and opportunities that individuals and organizations face when providing innovative solutions to grand challenges. We bring together four papers, that collectively contribute to a multilevel understanding of the mechanisms and processes that can be performed to address grand challenges. |
