Description - Foundations of Sustainability by Nada R. Sanders
Foundations of Sustainable Business is designed to
introduce future business leaders to the most important social and
environmental issues of our generation. From the perspectives
of a business thought-leader and a public interest policy expert,
the text provides a comprehensive, balanced introduction to
sustainable business that integrates sustainable policies into all
core business functions, including leadership, finance, accounting,
risk management, marketing, supply chain management, and
operations.
Presenting sustainability as a strategic priority for all
aspects of business, the text clearly defines all key concepts and
shows how social, economic, and environmental trends are
interconnected and relevant to corporate strategy. While the text
provides an honest look at climate change, human trafficking, and
environmental issues such as water shortage and ecosystem health,
all normative guidance is based on traditional business value
propositions, taking into account cost, risk, strategy, marketing
potential, and operational feasibility.
Additionally, the text offers a variety of pedagogical tools in
each chapter to provide an engaging, qualitative-based learning
process. Each chapter ends with original cases with focused
questions that test comprehension of concepts. With in-chapter
discussion questions, illustrative diagrams, ethical dilemmas,
managerial insights, links to fascinating TED Talk videos, and
on-point Harvard Business Review cases, Foundations of
Sustainable Business is user-friendly for instructors and
accessible to students.
