Objective

The aim of Sustainable Leadership Studies is to provide management practices and frameworks that guide both near-term and long-term activities and help different actors to make sustainable development solutions in strategic and operational decision-making. The student gets a picture of the information and skills required for sustainable management.

Content

The theme of the course is sustainable development, which is examined from different perspectives. The perspectives are: 1) ecological / environmental, 2) economic and 3) social / societal. In addressing the environmental aspect, special emphasis is given to climate change, where energy production plays a key role. The economic aspect is approaching the problematic field of sustainability from the market point of view, from the transition from oil to other alternatives. From a social point of view, the social impacts of organizations' activities in relation to personnel and the operating environment (community, society and the international community) are examined.
