Green skills are increasingly seen as critical to delivering sustainable projects but what do they actually mean in practice, and do project professionals have the capability to apply them where it matters most?

In this episode of the APM Sustainability Interest Network podcast, we explore the idea of the “green skills gap” and the reality behind it. As organisations set more ambitious sustainability targets, questions are emerging around whether project teams are equipped not just with the right knowledge, but with the behaviours, mindset and practical capability to deliver against them.

Featuring Karen Thompson from Responsible Project Management, this conversation explores how the profession is currently interpreting green skills, the role of human behaviour and decision-making in sustainable delivery, and how emerging thinking around sustainability mindsets and competency development could help close the gap.
