The building sector is increasingly recognised as a key driver of sustainability, influenced by governmental and non-governmental pressures.

This study, titled 'Navigating Tensions in Green Building Certification: The Impact of Leadership and Collaboration in Temporary Multi-Organizations' explores the impact of Green Building Certificates (GBCs) on innovation in construction, particularly focusing on technological advancements and stakeholder collaboration. 

Using a multiple case study approach, the research highlights the crucial role of the 'green project champion' - a leadership figure who coordinates efforts across project stages. 

This champion ensures sustainability goals are met and fosters collaboration among diverse stakeholders. 

The study emphasises that effective leadership and collaboration are essential for successfully implementing GBCs and driving innovation in sustainable building.
