AREAS OF
EXPERTISE

Organisations consist of people, and organisational challenges logically arise through issues that are related to the professionals working in it. At UMIO, we put an emphasis on the human side of business by taking a closer look at leadership practices and impact, strategic change processes, decision-making, and learning.

We thrive on finding the optimal way for people to lead themselves, their teams, and their organisations in environments that are driven by change and the need to be innovative.

How can organisations create innovations that make use of important trends? How can firms incorporate the customer perspective into business and design processes? What are things to take into consideration when it comes to implementing a sustainable innovation?

With a focus on service design and innovation, UMIO offers valuable insights into what is needed to develop enduring innovations that allow organisations to evolve in the 21st century and beyond.

Sustainability is no longer a luxury or a niche topic — it is rapidly becoming central to all government, social and business decisions. However being able to incorporate sustainability principles in the financial management of an organisation is not always easy.

At UMIO we seek to bridge the gap between traditional capitalism and a new context of economic and social value by helping you to clarify the appropriate balance between societal obligation and duty to the organisation. We incorporate lessons learned from financial industries, build on our faculty’s expertise and experience in sustainable finance and control, and provide you with tools and theories to navigate this intricate balance.
