During the sessions, the coach will accompany the coachee in exploring their strengths, obstacles, and areas for development, challenging them to grow as professionals.

    "It should be a compulsory course for all managers and leaders across industries. The professors are top-notch, elucidating the indispensable need and broad impact of sustainability in business models, showcasing how it can be leveraged as a competitive advantage rather than viewed solely as a constraint."

    Trevor Johnson - IE

    "As a climate change practitioner and advocate, I am aware of the increasing call of all international, regional, and national bodies regarding a "whole community" approach to sustainability. This approach recognizes that sustainability is everyone's business. This fundamental purview of sustainability ignited my interest in applying to the program at IE University. My experience was amazing. The curriculum provided a rich, nuanced and balanced environment. As a professional in the sustainability realm, I would recommend this program to other professionals or executives looking to hone, refine and enhance their organization's approach to sustainability."

    "Attending the IE Executive Education Sustainability program has been one of my most rewarding inspirational and educational experiences in recent years. As a CEO looking to gain a broad and holistic understanding of the relevance, impact and implications of climate change and ESG for businesses in just 4 days, I found the program a most productive investment of my time. 

    The content was outstanding and well delivered by a great mix of speakers from both academia and industry. Program attendees came from a wide variety of industries and markets, which led to highly enriching discussions and insights. All the organizational elements were superb and the location itself at the IE Tower is spectacular. 

    I strongly recommend the program to all senior executives who either wish to expand or update their knowledge and understanding of the ESG topics and the very real implications for businesses in coming years, or who still need to be convinced about the unprecedented importance and urgency of putting focus on the ESG agenda and taking real meaningful steps to not only stop devastating the planet but to start repairing and protecting it for our own future and that of the next generations."
