Blended learning

Sustainability as a corporate strategy

Sustainable alignment of strategy, process, people and innovation management

This blended learning is held in German.
As a manager of a company, you have a corporate and social responsibility to use sustainability as an opportunity. You fulfill this responsibility by aligning your own business with sustainability. Voluntarily, due to regulatory requirements or market demands. In order to master the associated diversity and complexity, you need orientation and a coordinated approach. Orientation is provided by a sustainability framework in which all relevant sustainability aspects are located. But this alone is not enough to set corporate sustainability in motion. Clear, distributed and binding responsibilities must be agreed in the processes so that a transformation can succeed.

Strategies - business models - framework conditions

The terms sustainability, sustainable development and sustainable management are often and ubiquitously used phrases with a lot of room for interpretation. People use this leeway to construct a plausible reality through their own perception and thinking. A common understanding of sustainability is therefore essential. On this basis, it is then important to get to know futures, solutions, principles of action and thought models for a more sustainable economy, without losing sight of the reasons for a more sustainable economy, the starting position and the maturity levels of companies.
