Course Description:
Sustainable development seeks to reconcile economic development with the protection of social and environmental balance (Europa.eu, 2023). Society is increasingly prioritizing sustainability and, by extension, expecting sustainable value creation from entrepreneurs. More and more companies are being created to tackle a diverse set of societal or ecological issues, when historic companies are pushed to include societal and ecological needs within their business model. In both cases companies must keep a competitive advantage to survive - which can be challenging. That is, they must adhere to economic, ecological, and social welfare (both internal & external company) logics. This course analyses these challenges and suggests strategies as well as operational solutions & technics which can be used by entrepreneurs and by extension managers to fulfil their hybrid mission. Among others, this course draws on mutual discussion rounds, serious games, case studies, peer learning techniques and inductive method.
