Talking to Alumni

“I appreciated the fact that the program deliberately chose a strategic perspective by addressing the question of how a company can better achieve its own corporate goals by assuming responsibility for society. Of course, the ethical perspective is very important. In order to be more convincing in matters of sustainability when talking to your management, you also need strategic arguments.”
