The course gives you understanding about the ESG, its integration to your company's management perspective, discusses various cases etc. However, it feels people already working in this field will benefit better.

Very speech intensive - materials could gain from higher interactiveness, less wordy/texty.

Case studies in particular could be more impactful if presented with a broader range of techniques
