BOOK Review: Sustainable IT Playbook

Sustainable IT Playbook for Technology Leaders (Second Edition) reframes IT leadership around climate responsibility as a core strategic imperative. The book guides CIOs, CTOs, and senior IT leaders through a three-part framework—why, what, and how—bridging ethical rationale with actionable practice.

It emphasises measurable outcomes via an emissions baseline, governance structures, and practical KPIs, complemented by the Sustainable IT Reference Model and maturity dashboards. With updates on responsible AI governance, risk, and regulatory context, the work includes real-world case studies and downloadable templates from SustainableIT.org. While broad in scope, it offers a solid, implementable road map for translating sustainability into scalable IT transformation.
