Sustainability Corner

At Hanken & SSE Executive Education, our commitment goes beyond delivering top-tier executive education. We are dedicated to fostering a more sustainable and equitable world by aligning our efforts with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We are strategically aligned with 4. (Quality Education) and 8. (Decent Work and Economic Growth), and we also work with 3. (Good Health and Well-being) and 10. (Reduced Inequalities). These goals are deeply embedded in our core values, driving us to prioritise inclusivity, quality education, and sustainable economic growth.

SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being

We recognise that well-being is a fundamental aspect of effective leadership. Our educational offerings emphasise mental health, stress management, and the creation of healthier work environments. In partnership with e.g. Gubbe Sydänystävä Oy, we extend our focus on well-being to the elderly, ensuring that our commitment to health spans across all ages.

SDG 4: Quality Education

We believe in the transformative power of education. Our executive education programmes are designed to promote lifelong learning and skill development across all levels, from junior professionals to senior leaders. By offering a wide array of knowledge and education solutions, we ensure that both individuals and organisations can continuously grow and adapt in an ever-changing world. Our profits are returned to our owner schools for research purposes and to continue educating future economic leaders.

SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth

Empowering leaders to foster economic growth and create decent work opportunities is at the heart of what we do. Our programmes are meticulously designed to encourage responsible management, ethical leadership, and the building of economically resilient organisations. By promoting these principles, we contribute to sustainable economic growth and the creation of workplaces that are both productive and humane.

SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities

We are deeply committed to making executive education accessible to all, regardless of background. Our integration initiative, Business Lead, is a testament to this commitment. Through this programme, we actively contribute to the economic and social inclusion of refugees by providing training, as well as employment opportunities with partner companies.

Some of our sustainability programmes

Support for change negotiations

With over 30 years of experience in responsible leadership during periods of change and adaptation, along with career coaching, we offer personalised solutions that adopt a human-centred approach while aligning with the company's values and business objectives. A responsible organisation takes care of both the leaving and remaining personnel in a redundancy situation while also caring for the employer's image and reputation.

Our Way of Working

Courage
Courage, that special skill of calculated risk-taking helps bring out innovation and new thinking. We believe in courage as a skill to move mountains and it all starts from ourselves.
Insight
We believe that insight is the journey to actions that create impact. Insights add value and therefore we collaborate with the intent to offer insight and gain new insights every step of the way. Gaining new insight challenges us to always be one step ahead.
Heart
Organisations don’t create renewal or change, people do. Therefore, everything we do puts us, the human, right at the core. Our human touch creates life-changing moments of insight that inspires renewal and can sustain the test of time.
Bubbly
We have a bubbly spirit and doing business with us is seriously fun. We are flexible and will find a solution to any challenge.

Hanken Future Challengers

We offer possibilities for Hanken students to act as a resource in our consortium programmes. We introduce the Future Challengers to customer companies and define areas the challengers give input in. Through projects within the Hanken & SSE Future Challenger network students get hands on experience from real company cases. With supervision and coaching on the assignments from the Hanken & SSE team the students strengthen their business understanding and acquire a network of business contacts.
