Assistance as a sustainability agent

Living external and internal sustainability in the office

This training is held in German.
Sustainability is one of the greatest challenges of our time and is a global task. The transformation to a sustainable company can only succeed if there is a change in thinking among management and Employees . Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is the key term and many companies already have their own CSR departments and employ Sustainability Managers. As an assistant, you are not only a sparring partner for your superiors, but also a multiplier and role model at many interfaces within the company. In this training , you will gain an overview of the most important topics in the area of sustainability and the tools to competently support your management in developing and implementing a sustainability strategy. Our trainer will also familiarize you with the inner dimension of sustainability and you will learn about the IDGs (Inner Development Goals) as the starting point for a holistic transformation.
