What Skills Does Acre Look for in a Climate Change Professional?
The technical expertise required to tackle climate change varies considerably from professional to professional, dependent on area of focus.
We believe a true partner keeps learning and growing with their clients - that’s why we are constantly evolving to ensure that as the world changes, faster than ever, we are here to make sure you are one step ahead and find the people with the skills you need.
We do, however, develop and assess against our bespoke competency framework of non-technical skills, built based on data that outlines what 'good' looks like in over 2,000 purpose-driven professionals. We believe that those non-technical skills, such as Executive Influence and Innovation & Courage, make an effective leader who can drive change and deliver impact.
