  Business Innovation and Sustainability (In this module, I gained a deep appreciation for the role of innovation and entrepreneurship within the context of business sustainability and the triple bottom line. It was designed to equip us with the tools to scrutinize both internal and external factors that shape the strategic management of organizations, aiming to secure a competitive edge in the marketplace. Crucially, the module emphasized the significance of value creation for businesses, a lesson that resonated strongly with me.)
