Purpose, Sustainability & Impact
Training

Sustainability is not a trend — it’s a revolution that’s reshaping the way we do business.
Companies that fail to adapt will fall behind, facing more conscious consumers, tighter regulations, and value chains that demand transparency and real commitment.
We help businesses understand what sustainability and positive impact mean for their businesses — beyond compliance and good intentions — and how to integrate them as strategic drivers within their operations and decision-making processes.
Session 1
Purpose-Driven Business Model
👉 We explore what it means to be a purpose-led business and how it influences decision-making, culture, and stakeholder relationships.
✅ Includes real-life examples, reflective dynamics, and practical tools to revisit and refine your business purpose.
Session 2
Sustainability & Value Chain
👉 We use the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a framework to understand what “sustainability” actually means when applied to business.
✅ With that shared understanding, we analyse your value chain to identify impact areas, opportunities for innovation, and ways to align profitability with positive change.
Session 3
Impact Business Model & B Corps
👉 We introduce the B Corp model as a practical framework to build and strengthen your impact strategy.
✅ We offer actionable steps to become more sustainable and impactful — even if certification isn’t your next immediate step.
