Sustainability and Management

In the wake of the 1987 Brundtland Report, sustainable development has become a key factor to the management systems in businesses and a means by which companies can increase their long-term value. Being a ‘sustainable company’ increasingly means ’staying alive in business’ and has become a necessity for all kinds of enterprises; from the micro sized to global corporations. In this book, the authors bring together international voices from a variety of disciplines to discuss the development, aspects, problems, roadmap, trends, and disclosure systems for sustainability in management. The result is a lively, insightful, exposition of the field.
