Struggling to turn ambitious decarbonization goals into supplier-level action across fragmented networks?
The situation this course is for
You're accountable for reducing scope 3 emissions, but face misaligned incentives, inconsistent data, and resistance to change across global suppliers. Traditional frameworks don’t adapt to real-world complexity, and leadership expects progress without clear levers to pull. Pilots stall, reporting stays siloed, and momentum fades without a scalable model.
Who this is for
A program leader in a global industrial or tech firm, accountable for supply chain sustainability outcomes. They combine technical fluency with cross-functional influence, operate beyond compliance, and seek operational leverage over emissions. They value structure, clarity, and tools that accelerate alignment.
Who this is not for
This is not for consultants selling generic ESG reports, entry-level sustainability staff, or those seeking only carbon accounting software training. It’s not for leaders focused solely on internal scope 1 and 2 reductions.
What you walk away with
- Map high-impact decarbonization levers across supplier tiers
- Design supplier engagement models that drive action, not just disclosure
- Integrate emissions reduction into procurement and innovation workflows
- Build cross-functional alignment between sustainability, procurement, and engineering
- Create living roadmaps that adapt to supplier capacity and market shifts
