More about this course
  • This course is designed to help anyone who wants to make a positive impact on society, but doesn't know how. Whatever your age, academic background or professional context, it will help you find the path that is right for you to make a difference. You will learn how to move from desire to idea, and from idea to action.

  • - Develop awareness of the role and means of actions of social and environmental changemakers.
  • - Take stock of your own aspirations, motivations and strengths.
  • - Define your objectives towards a personal and professional transformation and initiate an effective transition to action.

  • - Gain concepts and methodologies from the fields of innovation, entrepreneurship and sustainability to help frame issues at stake, define and structure a viable project.
  • - Develop self-awareness thanks to concrete self-development tools and exercises.
  • - Get inspired by the testimonies of social entrepreneurs and corporate leaders sharing their experience.
  • The last module can be customized to your professional context or project as you may choose between three tracks whether you are aiming at becoming a "social entrepreneur", an "impact employee", a "corporate changemaker".
