ESG is dead, but how can companies embrace sustainability to create impact?

Join us to discover how businesses can adapt and thrive by embracing sustainability to future-proof their success.

In this masterclass we will explore the evolving landscape of business sustainability. We will begin by defining ESG and sustainability, providing a clear understanding of both concepts. We will then assess their relevance for businesses in 2025, examining how the priorities of today are shifting. Finally, we will show how companies can successfully navigate their sustainability transformations, moving beyond short-term gains to achieve lasting, meaningful impact.

This in-person masterclass with Julia Binder, Professor of Sustainable Innovation and Business Transformation, will take place on our IMD campus in Lausanne. This is a wonderful opportunity to engage in a true learning experience and network with other professionals who are eager to advance their careers. 

Here’s what you can expect from your masterclass:

  • Gain a clear understanding of ESG and sustainability and how they differ in today’s business landscape.
  • Assess the relevance of ESG and sustainability for businesses in 2025, identifying shifting priorities and emerging trends.
  • Explore practical strategies for successfully navigating sustainability transformations, moving beyond quick wins to long-term, meaningful impact.
  • Discover how to future-proof your business by embracing sustainability as a core driver of success in an ever-evolving world.


Following the masterclass, you are invited to join an information session on either the Executive MBA or the full-time MBA program. Here, you will have the chance to connect directly with our Program Advisors and Alumni to gain: 

  • Details about the respective programs 
  • Insights on how learning at IMD can align with your career goals and strategic business objectives 
  • Answers to any questions you may have about IMD’s degree programs
