What drives tomorrow's water leaders
Up‐and‐coming water professionals are experiencing frustration in the workplace because traditional water management applies a single problem/single solution approach to challenges. The new generation of water leaders believes that if water challenges are not viewed in a holistic and integrated way, effective solutions cannot be found. To address this gap between current practice and needed change, these water professionals are returning to the classroom to acquire the tools that will make them truly effective in their work. As they move back into the workplace, they will bring with them a new way of approaching water management, creating teams on which all professionals involved directly or indirectly with water, environmental, and human issues will work together to develop solutions that will be sustainable and effective for the future. In addition, this new approach to water management will address social inequities and injustice as well as the long‐term survival of the human race and the planet.
