Franz Bodlos has completed his academic education with an MBA (Academic Business Manager Business Administration) at the University of Klagenfurt, which underlines his expertise and commitment to continuous professional development. His extensive background and credentials are testament to his deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing organisations in today’s economy.
Franz has also completed a course to become a certified sustainability manager and is actively and continuously familiarising himself with current EU regulations, such as the Supply Chain Act. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in particular are increasingly affected by these requirements, as they are often asked by customers to provide evidence of their sustainability efforts. Bodlos Consulting is working with SMEs to draw up their first voluntary sustainability reports in order to prepare them for the increasing requirements and make them future-proof.
Franz is firmly convinced that sustainability is not just a challenge, but a significant opportunity for companies. For him, sustainable business means creating long-term value, securing competitive advantages and actively taking responsibility for the environment and society.

He develops customised, practical solutions that meet the individual requirements of companies and help them to successfully integrate their sustainability strategies in order to achieve both economic and social goals.
