This course focusses on a critical approach to sustainable operations
and supply chain management, exploring inherent paradoxes and unintended
consequences.
Every cause has an effect: Seemingly positive
sustainable activities can cause further (un)intended positive or
negative outcomes. It is a matter of considering and anticipating these
potential tensions or unintended consequences in order to manage and
potentially avert them.
During this seminar, we will go into more
detail on sustainability paradoxes and unintended consequences and apply
this knowledge to contexts of sustainable operations, sustainable
supply chain management and Circular Economy.
Circular Economy is a
highly evolving and promoted topic within the realm of sustainability
management and supply chain management, which we will further explore
within the course of this seminar.
