Beskrivelse
Indhold

Executing projects is the most effective way to bring about change. Today every business has to align its strategies with ESG (Environmental, social and governance) goals. Rather than solely focusing on profits, businesses must fulfil their obligations towards the society and the environment. The benefits of a project must extend much beyond its completion. The project manager needs to build competencies in his team to deal with challenges and complexities associated with sustainable project management. Stakeholder engagement and transparent communication support sustainable project management.
