Thriving Regenerative Enterprise

Sustainable business practices are often poorly understood, are rarely implemented systematically, and frequently are merely a disguised set of traditional business practices masquerading as innovation. Focusing on intrapreneurship (i.e., driving change within existing organizations) this course will explore the issues of sustainable business practices in order to provide tools and methods to help students understand, respond to, and master:

  • Means and methods of creating legitimate, verifiable sustainability performance
  • How to inspire and drive human and social capital development within the enterprise and among enterprise stakeholders
  • Methods of measuring sustainability performance, and establishing baselines for and driving continuous improvement in performance
  • How auditing and reporting on sustainability performance aids capacity building, propagates sustainability in other enterprises and organizations, and supports clear communications about the authenticity and focus of sustainability performance.

 

What people are saying about the GreenMBA

"Learning how to "breakdown" a project has been a fabulous tool for me in business.  I am a Facilities/Project Manager by training and have to think "systemically" in my daily work day, however, getting fully engaged in a "project" for class and working on a "team" project takes you deeper into the process.  How to use systemics and critical thinking in determining whether a project is ready "for the street" or whether it needs to be drilled deeper to get the core of what will make it successful.  It's a study in chaos and systems planning.  I find myself thinking about who will be my next "test case" - or victim!!!"
