Melanie Vella, Sustainability Consultant
The best part of this program was its practicality. I was looking for a step-by-step guide with practical tools and tips to help start an organisation's sustainability journey, and this delivered. It felt like learning from an experienced Sustainability Manager, almost like having a colleague to guide me. I also enjoyed interacting with participants from diverse industries and backgrounds.

My biggest win was gaining confidence in myself—I now know I can be a good Sustainability Manager. My favourite part was the discussions and exploring solutions with other attendees. I've gained tools to systematically approach sustainability in my company, with clear guidance on how to use them—something I wouldn't have achieved otherwise.

This program is great whether you're on the sustainability career path or need a deeper understanding of ESG in business and what actions are required. It significantly improves data analysis skills, fosters a research mindset, and gives a complete understanding of regulations, corporate governance, and GRI. I also enjoyed enhancing my writing and communication skills.

It has been an eye-opener seeing how ESG connects to daily business operations for sustainable outcomes. My biggest win was understanding double materiality and its inward and outward impacts on the business. The Impact Accelerator’s structure and flow were insightful and well-detailed, and throughout the sessions, I could see myself progressing to new levels. Truly great.

The biggest win was working with my colleagues to develop a unified strategy, allowing us to accelerate change together. My favourite part was the clarity on communication and reporting to avoid greenwashing. Module 8 was my lightbulb moment, especially the 9-box model and its emotional impact.
