About Creating Value Through Sustainability
Organisations are increasingly being required to report on their approach to sustainability. In some jurisdictions this is being driven by mandatory disclosure requirements, while in others pressure is being exerted by investors and other key stakeholders, including banks, prudential bodies and stock exchanges. The key for organisations is how to integrate a focus on sustainability as part of their strategy, business model and risk profile.
This course will provide practical guidance for mid- to senior-level finance professionals on the impact of a focus on sustainability of organisations. It will show how finance professionals can provide strategic leadership to support the adoption and deepening of an organisation’s sustainability journey.
Featuring examples and real-world application provided by industry experts and financial leaders to embed the learning and bring the content to life, through this course you will gain the requisite tools and techniques that are increasingly important in modern finance roles.
This course features case studies from leading companies including Glencore, PepsiCo and Nivea. It is highly interactive with activities, videos and simulations to keep you actively engaged and will focus on a broad range of industries.
