Atsauksmes
Līga Rubene
"TENACHEM SIA" Vides pārvaldības speciāliste
Lielisks ceļvedis par ilgtspējas principu izpratni, kas nav nemaz tik viegla, ņemot vērā tās plašo ietvaru. Gluži, kā kursa pieteikumā, tas patiešām bija interaktīvi, ar patiesi pieredzes bagātiem kursa vadītājiem, zinošiem kolēģiem no dažādām nozarēm, kam jau bija lielāka vai mazāka pieredze ilgtspējas jautājumos. Tā rezultātā no šī kursa esmu ieguvusi ne tikai strukturētas teorētiskās zināšanas, bet arī praktisku iespēju izvērtēt sava pārstāvētā uzņēmuma - stikla pakešu un celtniecības hermētiķu ražotāja SIA "TENACHEM" - pieredzi ilgtspējas stratēģijas ieviešanā.

"A great testimonial can boost your brand’s image. Click to edit and add your own."
Lekcijas piedāvāja stabilu pamatu, noskaidrojot ilgtspējības pamatkoncepcijas, attiecīgos tiesiskos regulējumus, efektīvi ieskicējot ilgtspējas nozīmi mūsdienu uzņēmējdarbības vidē un juridiskās saistības, ar kurām saskaras uzņēmumi.
Izmantojot praktiskus piemērus, bija iespēja gūt dziļāku izpratni par to kā atpazīt, novērtēt un mazināt ilgtspējas riskus.
Pēc manām domām, akadēmijas vērtīgākais aspekts bija sniegtās norādes par stabilas ilgtspējas stratēģijas, plāna un ziņojuma izstrādi.

“Have customers review you and share what they had to say. Click to edit and add their testimonial.”
No šī kursa ieguvu ne tikai vispārējās zināšanas par ilgtspējības jautājumiem, bet arī strukturētu pieeju gan no uzņēmuma viedokļa, gan sabiedrības, kā arī kopējo ainu kā pasaule un Eiropa aplūko šo problemātiku. Īpaši augsti novērtēju, ka ieguvu nepieciešamo bāzes informāciju, lai varētu būvēt strukturētāku ilgtspējas stratēģiju uzņēmumā, kā arī izveidot pasākumu kopienu, lai praktiski ieviestu šo uzņēmumā.

Es ieguvu daudz jaunu zināšanu gan vispārīgi par ilgtspēju un zaļo kursu, gan arī kā integrēt ilgtspēju uzņēmumā un dot pozitīvu ietekmi uz sabiedrību un vidi. Liels paldies kursa vadītājiem, Olgai Veilandei un Armandam Gūtmanim, par viņu profesionalitāti un spēju sarežģītus jautājumus izstāstīt viegli saprotamā veidā!

No šī kursa es ieguvu dziļāku izpratni par ilgtspējību, stratēģijas būtību, tās principiem, dziļāku izpratni par ilgtspējas standartiem, terminu skaidrojumiem, Praktiski piemēri deva vēl labāku sapratni. Vērtīgi bija mācību materiāli, kas palīdz labāk izprast. Noderīgas diskusijas ar citiem uzņēmuma pārstāvjiem, viņu pieredzi un redzējumu šajā jomā.
