Sustainability sheds a whole new light on economic value creation.
Sustainable value creation means looking critically at both
revenues and costs. Not everything that makes money is of value.
Not everything for which no bill is sent is 'free'. This book
explains how this is the case and what it means to incorporate
sustainability into a company’s strategy and manage activities
based on sustainable principles. At the same time, it keeps an eye
on the broader societal context in which companies operate, such
climate change policies, the SDGs and ESG finance. Since the launch
of the concept of sustainable development, many policies at various
institutional levels have focused on reducing environmental damage
and social ills. This book reflects this broader context. However,
despite many serious efforts, it cannot be denied that these
policies do not stand up against continued economic growth and a
growing global population. This is why this book also stresses that
more radical approaches are needed for a successful transformation
towards a sustainable society. Businesses should not be content to
wait and see what lies ahead. They need to proactively take
ownership of the change process that is needed. The book has eight
chapters that discuss the various aspects of sustainable value
creation from different points of view, including sustainable
management and chain management as well as sustainable accounting
and reporting. It gives a concise but well-underpinned picture of
what sustainable business means today.
