The course will provide participants with the essential knowledge, awareness, relevance and responsibilities of corporate sustainability. It will then identify gaps and how design thinking can be used as a framework in the transformation process.
The participant-centred programme focuses on supporting individuals in their sustainability efforts through raising awareness of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) requirements by utilising a Design Thinking and Humanity-Centred Innovation (HCI) step by step approach. Through the framework of people (stakeholders who are impacted, directly or indirectly), products (innovative products & services) and profits (economic impact & benefits) participants will gain awareness through a customised plan for adopting actionable sustainable strategies. The program also helps participants evaluate their organisation's current sustainability standing, offering valuable insights and strategies towards Sustainable Business Innovation and growth.
By the end of the Course, participants will be able to:
- Relate to the UN SDG and the corporate responsibilities for sustainability in an organisation.
- Identify the gaps in the respective organisation’s standing in relation to corporate sustainability.
- Apply Design Thinking to identify and support the transformation required.
