This course is outstanding! I love how it explains complex concepts in simple terms, making it accessible for everyone—from deep-tech engineers to non-technical professionals. The focus on pragmatism and tangible business value is a game-changer. I especially appreciated the clear communication strategies like the 'Trojan Horse' and the timely insights into AI's environmental impact. Highly recommended!

The course showed how to align GreenOps goals with strategy and data, and as such highlight effective means of getting companies to engage with GreenOps practices. I appreciated the focus on practical aspects of engaging companies, and the common-sense approach to what works and what does not work.

Very informative and easy to follow for an ITAM professional. Uses real-life use cases and examples that ACTUALLY happen, rather than book theory.

Excellent course with a pragmatic approach to cloud sustainability. The GreenOps Flywheel provides a clear path from learning to implementation. Rather than "sustainability at all costs," it teaches you to align GreenOps with pre-existing business goals and speak each stakeholder's language. The Trojan Horse concept—packaging GreenOps as cost savings for CFOs, talent attraction for HR, or environmental impact for engineers—is brilliant. Highly recommend for FinOps, cloud, sustainability roles.
