It gave us a holistic view of sustainability

The key to driving sustainable transformation is based on collaboration and learning, and I can't think of anyone better than Skills4Impact to achieve this."

Analysis tools to start working on a sustainability programme
“The program has helped me to broaden my vision of sustainability beyond my speciality, which is communication. Over the weeks we've seen the different dimensions of sustainability at a corporate level, but also beyond. We've learned procedures and analysis tools that allow us to evaluate the company's situation and start working on a defined sustainability programme.”
