- This lecture provides an advanced introduction into Corporate
Sustainability Management. What is sustainability? Why is it
increasingly important for businesses? What challenges and
opportunities are embedded in it?
Following a brief recap of the concepts of sustainability and
sustainability management, we will use this perspective to take a
closer look at various corporate functions. How do sustainability
questions influence and interact with the business firm in areas
such as human resources, logistics, supply chain management,
accounting & reporting, or in production?
In the exercise (Übung), students will apply this knowledge to reallife
cases, thereby further enhancing their understanding of
sustainability and its management in corporations. Particularly,
students will gain insights into challenges, risks, and opportunities
in regards to sustainability in businesses.
Throughout the lecture and exercise, we will follow the concept of
integrated sustainability management, thus the integration of the
three pillars of sustainability: economy, natural environment, and
society into the core of a business.
