In our rapidly changing global ecosystem, companies are being held to increasingly demanding environmental and social standards. Executives need to understand how these factors impact their business in order to build sustainable companies that meet the needs of society and deliver economic returns.
Sustainability Training for Business Leaders will help executives address these environmental and social challenges for their company. Through discussion, lectures and group exercises, participants will better understand how to reduce risk, create competitive advantage and develop innovative services, products and processes in a sustainable way that builds value for society and protects the planet. They will practice translating corporate performance on sustainability into financial performance, and will leave this course with a 3-month roadmap outlining concrete steps for implementing sustainable practices at their organization.
