What have people said about the ESG Strategy Seed?
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Working together with Sydney and Alex on the ESG Strategy Seed helped unravel the complex topic of ESG reporting into bite-sized chunks that progressively built on top of each other. The small group conversations and the strategy assignment enabled critical understanding of the key areas of focus in developing an effective ESG strategy. As ESG becomes more topical in the ANZ region driven my stakeholder demand and regulatory changes, it is very important for corporate professionals to quickly upskill in this area. Short courses with hands-on project work is the way to go.

Applying the knowledge to the case study each week helped solidify the topics presented, providing a more holistic understanding of ESG strategy and reporting. I thoroughly enjoyed the collaborative aspect of the weekly live sessions and hearing the diverse perspectives that participants had in solving & reporting on material ESG issues.

The hands-on approach was incredibly effective in helping us digest the wealth of information. What stood out the most was the open exchange of knowledge, which made the sessions both engaging and insightful. Sydney and Alex were outstanding, not only in their knowledge but also approachable, always ready to clarify and provide thoughtful answers. Overall, it was an enriching experience, and I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to expand their understanding of ESG.

The econome program I completed gave me an amazing foundational understanding of what's required for a company to "go net zero". Convincing my organisation to move to net-zero has become a whole lot easier as I know what's required, the potential benefits and what next steps might look like :)

The econome learning experience I completed was an insightful experience on setting an effective climate strategy. I particularly enjoyed the support from industry experts, and the level of depth of more niche topics such as the GHG Protocol and Science Based Targets. The platform was excellent, and easy to use while the program catered for flexibility of participants. The program was unique and helped me appreciate the complexity of net-zero, and considerations businesses need to consider. I would highly recommend for anyone who wants to learn more about sustainability, and even those working in the space!

As an environmental lawyer, the learning experience was an easy and friendly way to learn the complexity of the climate crisis providing me with the technical knowledge to understand the roots of the emission reduction targets that the international legislation seeks to achieve, and the legal career does not provide. The structure of the course allows you to cover in a straightforward way a large number of topics that without the correct guidance, could be very overwhelming.
