'A great course where everything was carefully planned. There was continuously provided well-worked and coherent material that was straightforward to work with and certainly will be helpful to any business. Good atmosphere and fruitful presentations between the participants. It is rare to have such an inspiring course and engaging teaching. I highly recommend Sustainor'.

'I participated in CSR teaching for a longer course led by Dennis Friis Thaagaard. All expectations were more than fulfilled, especially due to the teacher's great personal commitment to the whole basic idea of CSR. So out of the 25-30 courses in which I have participated in my professional career, this course is definitely in the top 3. Subsequently, we have implemented CSR in our company, and we are hard at work on several parameters'.

'At Nilfisk we have been very happy to use Sustainor as a sparring partner on various CSR challenges'.

'The chemistry between us is good, and even if aren’t completely at the finish line yet, we have come a long way already. Dennis has consolidated our efforts with us, and you might say that we went from using a shotgun approach to a rifle approach'.

'Working with CSR makes a lot of sense with regard to our values and way of doing business. Our focus has always been decency, and that is exactly what CSR is all about'.

'The CSR course was a very inspiring course where I got an insight into what "sustainability" really means. Sustainor's series of courses opened up many perspectives that one should aim for, and at the same time, it was a briefing on which tools are the most effective in relation to this. I could use the message of the course both in my own company but also with my clients, where the "sustainability policy" is a relevant parameter. Now I know much more about sustainability than before!'

'It was new legal requirements that set our development of a real CSR strategy in motion. If we were to start reporting on CSR anyway, we might as well do it properly. Much of what we already did was CSR, but working on the CSR strategy has put things in place'.

'We sell the things customers want, but regarding the implementation of the CSR strategy, we have chosen to focus more on ecology and locally produced food in our webshop. It has become more apparent that customers can choose different solutions. On the whole, the CSR strategy has become a tool that makes it more apparent what we already do and want to do'.

'As the largest Danish-owned bakery, and with more than 500 employees, Kohberg is aware of our social responsibility. Sustainor contributed in 2018 in defining a sharper CSR strategy and how Kohberg takes social responsibility'.

'VAM chose to hire Sustainor to develop a CSR strategy. The cooperation has so far led to VAM's release of its first CSR report and its signing on to work with implementing the UN's Ten Principles of Global Compact’.

'I had the pleasure of working with Sustainor during the developing of Nilfisk’s CSR strategy and report. I was impressed by Sustainor’s high professionalism and in-depth knowledge of key CSR challenges and Nilfisk’s industry, which were valuable to guide us in further developing Nilfisk’s CSR work'.

'We had no plan for sustainability, but with Sustainor's help we now have both a strategy and implemented actions, and we can communicate clearly about both internally and externally'.

'We have used Sustainor to develop our new CSR strategy and continuously use Dennis as a highly qualified sparring partner on new CSR initiatives, where he is always at the forefront of the new trends and relevant legislation in the field'.

'CSR proved to be unifying for VAM's values and work. It is from CSR that most of our activities originate. Whether it's saving energy, avoiding idle machines or making sure our employees are well and trained, it’s all about CSR. That it can also be done with a focus on improving the bottom line, we are only pleased about'.

'Dennis was particularly good at balancing respect for our distinctive character and challenging us enough to get the sustainability agenda right'.

'The CSR course with Dennis Thaagaard was an eye-opener in terms of CSR as an actual set of values in a company where everyone - management and employees - gets CSR under their skin in their daily work. The course was well-structured and sprinkled with many small exercises based on rosters, where the individual course participant could think seriously about CSR strategy and especially CSR elements in their own company. There was ample opportunity to make your own points during the three-course days and to spar with the dedicated and responsive course leader, Dennis T.'

'Sustainor made a fantastic mix between practical and theoretical knowledge, which we can easily put into the templates we were provided by Sustainor. Sustainor also manages to put things into perspective with each company, even though there are many different companies present from different industries'.

'The CSR area is a very exciting one, which can be of great use for most companies to deal with, both internally and in relation to existing and future customers. At Sustainor you get both inspiration and a systematic approach to CSR, which is a broad management area'.

’With Sustainor as a facilitator, we have a good CSR strategy process in place - based on a simple, suitable template and with many great tips along the way’.

‘The structured work with CSR has become a very good tool both within the company and with customers who increasingly expect companies like VAM to have a CSR strategy’.

’The work with CSR is also an element of gaining greater pride with employees through the awareness of our social responsibility, including why we go to work. We are constantly working to find new angles on social responsibility’.

’After a year, the work on CSR is still new and there is still a lot to learn, but Dennis has been very good at structuring the process for us and giving us concrete tasks that we had to solve within a short deadline. In this way, we have implemented CSR in manageable chunks’.

’In addition to creating an effect on the world, the process with Sustainor has yielded a huge gain internally. As an employee, you are now proud to contribute to increased sustainability’.

'We are a relatively large company with a very wide product range and many larger and smaller suppliers. We have always had a good feeling about them, but with the CSR strategy we have become more systematic with the registration and risk assessment of our suppliers, just as we are in the process of implementing the code of conduct'.

’We are not going to change the entire machinery tomorrow because there are challenges in delivering the power with other propellants than diesel, but we have clearly become sharper on what we’re going to do strategically, and we are not afraid to say that we dare to think long-term and will take the lead with CSR. We have had our values confirmed and we feel more confident when, for example, new requirements for CSR reporting come in’.

‘Dennis was very adept at setting the stage for some inspiring and rewarding course days, while creating a lovely atmosphere with his responsiveness and kindness, where everyone felt heard and included. We had a lot of interesting discussions during the course where Dennis clearly shows that he knows his stuff. Thanks for some fun and educational training days’.

’It would certainly have taken us longer to get to the finish line without the ongoing, professional advice from Dennis’.
