ACTIVITIES TO IMPROVE YOUR SKILLS

STUDY CIRCULAR ECONOMY COMPETENCIES

Companies play an important role in the transition towards a circular economy. Embedding circular economy is relatively new for most companies and professionals. This transition requires the people working in companies to do things differently. Different from what they were used to and were trained for.

The Sustainability University started this project to study the specific competencies among sustainability professionals, to successfully realize the circular economy within their companies. Our research show that “system thinking”, “foresight thinking” and “entrepreneurship” is mentioned as the most important competencies for embedding circular economy.

This project is supported by The Goldschmeding Foundation.
