To make this possible, other approaches, models and instruments are needed. We at the VAUDE Academy advise and support you in your individual transformation process towards sustainability. We not only offer advice, but see ourselves as a source of inspiration, mentor, critical companion and encourager.

Constantine Rentrop
Managing Director
— Sporthaus Schuster
»As a specialist dealer in the sports sector, we are largely dependent on maintaining a healthy environment and the jobs associated with it. That is why the issue of sustainability has top priority at Sporthaus Schuster. We are aware of our tasks and take responsibility. We are particularly pleased to have such competent support from Lisa Fiedler and the Vaude Academy on this complex topic. Together we want to ensure that our grandchildren can still experience the beauty of outdoor sports and that we can convince more and more employees, customers and partners of the importance of sustainable management.«
