As an increasing number of countries and regions are committed to fostering renewable energy, reducing carbon dioxide emissions and enhancing circular business strategies, corporations are struggling to cope with their sustainability targets, both in reporting standards and in implementation practices. Sustainable transformation becomes a key challenge for many organizations, as green accounting and reporting is required by various jurisdictions across the globe. However, sustainability can be seized as an opportunity to explore new business models rather than being perceived as a threat to existing operations, whilst companies can gain competitive advantage by becoming pioneers in the quest for sustainable business practices.
Our aim for the course is to cover major trends in this regard and equip participants with approaches for setting up sustainability strategies, providing practical use cases and best practices for decarbonization and circular business models, and provide fundamental theoretical frameworks for green and qualitative growth.
This program will be conducted together with ESMT EMBA students.
