Event description

PLUS UTS Business Futures is launching a new short course in partnership with the Abundium multinational leadership community. It’s designed to help senior executives at multinational companies in Australia leapfrog their strategic capability in the area of sustainability.

As a leader you will know the importance of ensuring Sustainability and Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) aims are deeply embedded into your business strategy, operations and value chains. Set yourself on the path to lead and integrate sustainability initiatives into your work context, through resetting your compass and valuing an abundant mindset.

This pilot short course is launching Monday 20 February 2023 with an orientation lunchtime session hosted by Abundium. The program consists of four 2-hour workshops delivered at the UTS Business School, including three peer-coaching sessions, and a graduation hosted by Abundium.
