The case for business sustainability has already been made;
organizations can no longer ignore the issue when climate change affects
supply chains and customer expectations require them to take action. It
has also been proven that businesses operating sustainably drive
innovation, build brand value and are more profitable.
It is therefore time to shift the conversation from the 'why' of
business sustainability to the 'how'. The Sustainable Business
Handbook is a practical 'how-to' guide which aims to demystify jargon
and provide practical tools and tips for busy managers. Rather than
preaching the importance of sustainability, it cuts straight to how
businesses can become more resilient and successful in the long term by
becoming more sustainable.
This indispensable book is based around twenty top tips for transforming
your business and is interspersed with a range of individual profiles
and case studies of organizations successfully embracing sustainability.
With guidance on defining your organizational purpose, engaging
stakeholders and creating the right culture, The Sustainable Business
Handbook outlines how to shift Corporate Responsibility from being a
bolt-on to business operations to being a source of innovation and new
business, as well as societal good.
