WBS Sustainability Leadership programme

Is your organisation's strategy resilient in the face of the turbulent sustainability transition? 

• Understand the new context: Explore how global societal and environmental pressures are reshaping markets and regulatory landscapes. 
• Stress-test your strategy: Assess how your current strategy holds up against these factors. Identify vulnerabilities and opportunities for value creation.
• Scenario planning: Use real-world cases and frameworks to pressure-test assumptions under different sustainability and geopolitical scenarios. 
• Dinner: Network with your peers over dinner at Mallow,  a vegan restaurant with a strong sustainability ethos. This private dinner includes a talk by the chef, exploring how the restaurant chooses its suppliers to have the least possible impact on the environment.

From risk to opportunity, where does regeneration unlock value? 

• Measurement that matters: Move beyond ESG reporting to develop metrics that link regenerative outcomes to financial performance and resilience.
• Cross-functional integration: Learn how to embed sustainability strategy into finance, operations, and governance not as a silo, but as a driver of enterprise resilience.
• Financial levers: Examine the changing role of finance in sustainability transitions and how to leverage it. 
• Sustainable innovation: Identify opportunities for growth through circular models, nature-positive investments, and social impact.
• Hear from an industry guest: Learn how integrating sustainability has transformed an organisation

How do you shape regenerated systems and position yourself to succeed within them? 

• Coalition building: Explore how to lead partnerships across sectors to create synergies across social, environmental, and economic value.
• Case studies: Analyse organisations that have successfully pivoted from sustainability compliance to regenerative strategy.
• Policy and geopolitics: Understand how to navigate regulatory volatility and geopolitical risk while shaping future standards.
• Action planning: Create a roadmap for stress testing and adapting your organisation’s strategy for long-term success in a regenerative economy.

This half-day follow-up webinar, held six weeks after the main programme, is an opportunity to reflect on how you've applied the tools, insights, and frameworks to advance your organisation’s sustainability strategy. We’ll explore the tangible changes you’ve initiated, the experiments you’ve run, and the impact these have had so far—whether in culture, operations, or innovation. It’s a chance to share progress, learn from peers, and build on the momentum of your sustainability journey.
