This course examines what can be understood as a sustainability transformation from the perspective of a single organisation, including its business environment. We will discuss questions such as: Where do incremental sustainability transformations end and where do disruptive ones begin? Who initiates, drives, and organizes sustainability transformations? What stages and methods can be distinguished in such a transformation process?
The seminar aims to create an overview of different understandings of sustainability transitions and transformations in relevant research literature. Entrepreneurial and management theories and approaches will support the analysis of corporate practices, including businesses that are currently undergoing a radical sustainability transformation. From these analyses, conclusions will be drawn for the management of sustainability transformations of companies.

The aim of this course is to develop a deeper understanding of different forms of sustainability transformations of, with and through companies, as well as of stages, actors, approaches and examples of corporate practice. Participants will engage in an efficient development of a focused literature review and problematization of the research field. Theories and approaches identified in the literature will inform the analysis of practical case studies. This serves to address the so-called theory–practice gap by developing a deeper understanding of practical challenges companies face with (radical) sustainability transformations.
