Sustainable Management

Sustainable Management: The Complete Guide to Principles and Practice is both a core textbook, and a guide for teachers in one convenient volume.

Sustainable Management: A Complete Guide for Faculty and Students is both a textbook for students, as well as a teaching guide for educators. With a full introduction to sustainable management, the book covers a wide range of subject areas relevant to business and management students. It enables faculty to incorporate sustainability and climate solutions into their modules, and is also very accessible for self-directed studies.

This third edition features fully updated chapters on how to integrate the Sustainable Development Goals into key disciplines in business, including economics, operations, marketing, HR, strategy, and financial reporting. We also cover topics such as corporate peacemaking, greenhouse gas management and crowdsourcing. The book offers a new chapter on how to integrate climate solutions and climate change mitigation education into business and management schools, as well as many ideas in each chapter on how to do so. The chapter on employability and sustainability was fully redesigned adding new resources, which can be used in any educational establishment.

Educators in business schools and trainers in organisations will find short readymade seminars/workshops and a wide array of learning resources supported by a companion website.
