Course Description

Do you know what the circular economy is? And if so, are you ready to embrace the future of business?

I invite you to join me in this course and embark with me on a circular journey.

You will learn what the circular economy is, where to discover  circular ideas, how business models are presently shifting, where to look for  financing and, most importantly, why you must become part of this transformational shift,  whether you are a for-profit or non-profit entrepreneur or even an  intrapreneur in a large company. You will be surprised how many opportunities are available all around you. Plus, you will discover how many companies are already part of this transformational shift because this course is packed with practical ideas and inspirational stories. In short: ideal for all forward-thinking individuals. 

Once again, I invite you to join us!


P.S. Please note that the first version of this course was recorded in 2017-2018. Thankfully, a lot has changed since, which makes my work easier. At the same time, with our training and coaching presence in the Middle East and Southeast Asia, we are aware of how much work is still ahead of us.

Together with you, we can get there.

Instructor Details

Dr Gordana Kierans

I am Dr Gordana Kierans and my passion lies in collaborating with change makers, CEOs, and government officials to facilitate the transition to the circular economy, as I firmly believe it represents the future of all businesses.

Since 2016, I have been actively involved in advancing circular transitions through training, consulting, and coaching across the Middle East and Southeast Asia. From Jordan, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia, to Southern China, my efforts have empowered these change makers with not only a deep understanding of the circular economy but also essential leadership and communication skills crucial for navigating the transition.

I also firmly believe that only courageous and bold change makers can effectively implement circular strategies, leading us towards a thriving and cleaner world.

In addition to my impactful work, the success of this course, coupled with the entrepreneurial spirit of my husband (a serial entrepreneur), motivated us to co-found EntrepreneurCircle(dot)World, a membership platform serving as a networking hub for circular entrepreneurs and investors.

Prior to embarking on my circular economy journey, I spent over a decade bridging the gap between leading business schools and the industry.

It was educational and eye opening that we all have a part to play in this circular economy whether we plan to be entrepreneurs or not. Everything we do matters in the long term. Change has to come from within ourselves in order to become more sustainable and be in touch with nature. It's scary and daunting, but we work together we will make the planet a better place to live in.

The training is interesting, It offers a lot of interesting examples. Dr. Kierans is engaging. I would suggest to improve the slides and make them more relevant to the voice over, plus share more information on the slides. Also the quality of voice/sound is not consistent.

Through the course you get to come across many ideas and opportunities you can work on, along with that you get the sense of urgency that steps must be taken to have a change in our approach of linear economy and how you can be a part of that change.

Liked the structure and flow of the lecture. As the other commenter said, it would benefit additional slides to keep audience interest and reinforce the information being shared. I do appreciate her citing examples from all over the world, it is very encouraging to know people across age, gender, profession, countries are vested in this movement.

I really love you being straight and honest in your opinion. However, the pictures on slides could have been replaced with animations to make it more interactive. I'm a circular entrepreneur by birth, since I'm from India and my dream, my goal, my passion and my hobby is all to make this world more green. Thanks Gordana

This offers a very basic introduction to the topic through easy to understand digestible videos. I particularly liked the section on Business Models because it felt the most practically applicable. What I'd have liked to see is suggestions on how we can advance our knowledge in this area of circular economy i.e. where do we go after this course? i.e. any advanced courses on we can look into or different aspects of the circular economy that we could consider specialising in. The book recommendations are a good-to-have but feel too broad and overwhelming as a starting point.

No video, only audio

Need more interesting presentation slides. It felt more like an podcast.
