About the Programme


Climate Intelligence for Future-Focused Leaders

As climate risks, regulatory pressures, and investor expectations continue to reshape the business landscape, organisations across Africa face a critical gap: translating climate awareness into strategic action.

This programme was built for future-focused executives — equipping you not just with knowledge, but with the capability to lead in a climate-conscious business environment. You will learn how to drive sustainability through change management in ways that directly support the execution of business strategy.

At its core, the programme develops practical capabilities to assess climate-related risks, strengthen stakeholder engagement, and embed sustainability into everyday decision-making.

Designed for busy executives, it is delivered as a flexible, self-paced experience to enable executives to lead the transition without stepping away from it. The programme is supported by the Business School for Climate Leadership (BS4CL) Africa and the Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) Africa Chapter.
