Course Testimonials
Selling sustainability ideas to financial decision makers is key!
Charlotte T.: The class encouraged me to take further steps into organizing a sustainability initiative at the company I work for. I was feeling really discouraged and all by myself with my efforts, since fighting for sustainability in a big corporation gets you more “no`s” than anything else. But the instructions made it feel more doable, breaking it into sections and getting the perspective from people that seem to be against the efforts. Super likeable and optimistic teacher. Well done!
Julia Spangler, Sustainable Events Consultant: This course does a great job of articulating the common excuses that derail sustainability progress. As a sustainability consultant, I’ve heard lots of these comments before, but this course translates what people often say into their likely underlying attitudes and beliefs, and shares ideas for helping change attitudes at that deeper level. I can definitely see myself referring to my notes from this course whenever I encounter resistance to sustainability in the future
Rakel Z.: This is a really interesting and engaging course. I feel uplifted that I do not need to have a extroverted leader personality type to still make my stand on sustainability, I can just be myself!
