A paradigm shift is happening at this moment. Firms and consumers
are aware of the fact that they cause environmental pollution,
depletion of resources and are responsible for the dangers
involved. At the same time awareness is growing that they need to
and will develop the appropriate solutions in the time to come. The
idea that sustainable, cyclic businesses are more logical than
consumption-oriented and waste-dumping ones seems fascinating to a
growing number of people. For this change to happen new thinking
and behavior is needed. Firms and consumers play a central role in
a sustainable business. Companies deliver what consumers buy and
vice versa. In a sustainable paradigm, companies are able to
develop and produce sustainably. Therefore, companies need new
management concepts for sustainable investment, manufacturing,
logistics and marketing and for sustainable management. In Managing
Environmentally Sustainable Innovation in Building, Bossink
evaluates the innovation chain in a process of five consecutive
stages, articulates five levels at which people collectively manage
the chain, and analyzes the interplay between the two. Acquainting
the reader with the complexities of innovation, as well as which
complexities are active in the management of environmental
sustainability, this book offers guiding principles and a toolbox
for the management of environmentally sustainable innovation in
construction.
