Description

As corporations become responsible corporate citizens and education and government institutions more conscious of the need to measure social change, their leaders and managers will need to develop, implement and execute strategies that make that a reality. This course will allow students to incorporate, with examples and practical cases, ever-increasingly important concepts and tools, such as investment or business sustainability and ESG measuring and reporting, to the portfolio of tools and skills that will help them become the leaders and managers of the future.

Information

It is commonly agreed today that companies’ purpose should not only be to generate profits but also to contribute to a sustainable development that protects the environment and generates some level of positive social impact for their stakeholders and the societies they operate in.

During this course, we will explore how companies, investors and society can make this happen by promoting, measuring and reporting their performance and levels of impact, preventing practices such as greenwashing and responding to criticism, sometimes partly justified, of it lacking substance or being at the origin of the next investment bubble.
