Business and Sustainability
About This Course
This module seeks to introduce students to the concept of corporate sustainability and its impact on the environment and society on top of financial viability. Students will gain deeper insights on sustainability goals and formulate strategies to incorporate sustainability into an organisation’s business models and practices.
In addition, students will learn to identify an organisation’s key stakeholders and develop a stakeholder engagement plan to include their concerns in sustainability implementation.
What You'll Learn
Business sustainability is the process by which organisations manage their triple bottom line, namely the financial, social and environmental risks, obligations and opportunities. As governments, investors and consumers increasingly expect organisations to adopt sustainable business practices, more organisations are incorporating Sustainable Development Goals into their business models globally.
