Course description

Sustainability and innovation are critical aspects of business administration currently transforming the business industry. Companies that adopt sustainable and innovative practices gain a competitive edge due to a growing demand for sustainability practices. Additionally, the increasing demand for green products has led to the emergence of new practices and methodologies required to ensure that corporate activities are sustainable and creative.

What are the main pillars of corporate sustainability?

Corporate sustainability practices are contained under Environment, Social, and Governance practices. Companies execute ESG practices to lower environmental carbon footprints while attaining their corporate objectives. These practices are sustainable because they help protect society from pollution while preventing wasteful practices and harmful emissions. It ensures that corporations meet the needs of the present without negatively compromising the capacity of future generations to meet theirs. A company executes sustainable practices by lowering its utilization of non-renewable resources or seeking alternatives that have reduced environmental impacts. The three main pillars of corporate sustainability include profits, the planet, and the people.
