Drawing together understandings from science and business around
the increasingly important concept of resilience, this book
provides managers, academics and practitioners with important ideas
that will help business prepare for the future. It provides much
needed detail on the challenges that climate change poses for
organisations and makes essential reading for anyone interested in
sustainable business.' - Suzanne Benn, University of Technology,
Sydney, AustraliaClimate change has had a significant impact
globally, predominantly for those vulnerable to its influence. The
first book of its kind, The Climate Resilient Organization assesses
the issues that have mounted for decision-makers in the field,
while providing strategies to tackle them. With a particular focus
on building climate-resilient pathways for private sector
organizations, the expert authors offer practical tools and
decision-making criteria for evaluating adaptation needs, costs and
benefits. Split into two parts, this book begins with an analysis
of the subject on a global scale; it continues by translating the
science surrounding it while presenting it in a manner suited to
local decision-makers. Sustainability and climate adaptation
scholars as well as managers will equally find this book to be an
insightful read. Government officers and risk management
professionals will also find the topics discussed beneficial to
their work.
