About the Seminar

Implementing Sustainabilty Strategy is part of a series of four seminars offered in the scope of the Senior Leadership Program. The seminar can be taken separately or as a part of the whole Leadership Program.

Business leaders no longer need to debate what sustainability means and why it is important for business and society. The discussion is now about what needs to be done by whom and when to steer our world away from disaster and towards a better future. Businesses need healthy ecological, social and economic environments to be successful. In this seminar we aim to go beyond mere knowledge sharing and invest in the creation of pathways and toolkits that will capacitate participants to become sustainability leaders in their businesses. Participants will leave the seminar with workable solutions, action plans and tools for sustainability strategy and implementation in the interest of business and society.
