Sustainability as an Innovation Opportunity

Sustainability is quickly becoming a must-have in business—a technical skill set that employees, managers, and executives need to gain deeper understanding and build capacity to grow. It’s a way of thinking about how you use, value, and respect a world of shared but finite natural resources that we all depend on to create the products and services we use. In this course, LinkedIn Changemaker and UNEP Champion of the Earth Leyla Acaroglu gives you an overview of why sustainability matters to business as an opportunity to innovate and grow.

Learn about sustainability and the circular economy with examples of how it impacts business decisions and daily life, including waste, product lifecycle, supply chains, and procurement, to name a few. Explore the emerging world of circular redesign and what it means to operationalize it for a business. Leyla gives you practical tips to take action, motivate others, and inspire sustainable innovation in product development and business design.
