Download or read book Management Systems and Performance Frameworks for Sustainability written by Lowellyne James and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All organisations have a responsibility to ensure they have a minimum negative impact on the environment and act as a haven for human development that contributes to positive outcomes for society. But small businesses have limited resources with which to pursue sustainability initiatives and must focus on their core objectives in order to survive. Through an in-depth exploration of quality management theory, this book proposes a "Sustainability Management Framework" as a structure for a balanced approach to developing operations strategy for corporate social responsibility (CSR). Management Systems and Performance Frameworks for Sustainability explores the frameworks, accreditations and awards that small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs) can utilise to enhance their performance. In the first half of the book, the author demonstrates how complementary techniques such as the Sustainability Performance Framework can help organisational leaders to develop, implement and optimise business strategy into discrete activities of value setting, management system and performance model selection, and target setting and evaluation, to the tactical deployment of sustainability and CSR. Meanwhile, the second half of the book focuses on real SME case studies to illustrate the use of the Sustainability Strategic Growth Model, Sustainability Management Framework and Sustainability Performance Framework to align strategy and policies with compliance obligations, United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and Millennium Development Goals. This key book is vital reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of quality management, entrepreneurship and sustainability in business, executives of SMEs and sustainability policymakers.

This book was released on 2024-07-22 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the field of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and sustainability, a profound challenge emerges — the intersection of traditional practices with the relentless march of technology. Companies face a pressing dilemma as they navigate mandatory and voluntary CSR requirements, grapple with stakeholder demands, and strive for transparency in a digitally-driven era. The relationship between technology and CSR has become a pivotal concern, affecting compliance, monitoring, reporting, and ultimately, the very fabric of corporate reputation. This challenge calls for a nuanced understanding, and it is precisely this void that the book, Technology-Driven Evolution of the Corporate Social Responsibility Ecosystem, aims to fill. The central predicament lies in the dynamic evolution of CSR practices against the backdrop of technological advancements. As companies seek to balance mandatory and voluntary CSR initiatives, the landscape is fraught with complexities. Stakeholders, armed with technology, demand accountability, and transparency, pressuring companies to adapt swiftly. The challenge extends to the need for effective reporting, maintaining social legitimacy, and navigating the intricacies of CSR governance in a rapidly digitizing world. The traditional norms of CSR are being reshaped, requiring businesses to not only comprehend but also harness technology to align with societal expectations and environmental imperatives.

Download or read book Environmental Social and Governance and Sustainable Development in Healthcare written by Tiffany Cheng Han Leung and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-15 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book applies environmental, social and governance (ESG) to issues of sustainable development in healthcare. ESG reporting has been widely used for some time in the business industry to show the economic, social and environmental responsibilities of companies that aim to achieve superior ESG performance for lower risk, more accountability and transparency. Moreover, public-listed companies in healthcare have been growing in significant numbers in recent years. The application or practice of ESG in healthcare has become a growing trend for these large organisations looking to demonstrate their strengths in areas of financing, operations, sustainability and social responsibilities. Such an approach is essential not only for the long-term development of the companies but also for services delivered by healthcare practitioners. Equally, the implications to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3 is relevant to healthcare worldwide with a growing ageing population, which has led to a great burden of care in many countries, particularly in the public sector. The potential development and expansion in private healthcare services, accelerated by technology advancement, has demanded a new paradigm in the healthcare industry, particularly in business, service delivery and policy. The book examines this paradigm through health in all policies, ESG and SDG 3 objectives, research, training and practice. It is relevant to graduate students and scholars working in areas relating to health, business and the SDGs and is also useful to policymakers and practitioners in healthcare.

Download or read book Introduction to Sustainability Analytics written by Raghavan (Ram) Ramanan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-07-04 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The roles of corporate and public stewards and the nature of their social contract with society have been changing over the past two centuries, and those changes have accelerated in recent decades. Moreover, with increasing focus on sustainability factors from the marketplace (regulators, investors, financiers, and consumers), corporate sustainability disclosure is shifting from voluntary to vital. Corporate and public stewards are now responsible for their performance and services from cradle-to-grave: they must properly manage corporate social responsibility and integrate it into their global strategies, rather than consider it as merely a moral obligation or a risk/reputation management exercise. Sustainability analytics, the critical link between sustainability and business strategy, helps professionals track, trend, and transform sustainability information into actionable insights across the value chain and life cycle, to enhance their sustainability performance and its disclosure. This book, Introduction to Sustainability Analytics, provides corporate and public stewards with a comprehensive understanding of how to determine which sustainability metrics are material to them and relevant to their business, and how to incorporate them into corporate strategy, resource allocation, and prioritization. Focusing on practical decision-making needs, it explains how to value and prioritize initiatives, and how to best allocate necessary resources through several real case studies and practical examples. Features: Examines pressing issues such as climate change, water scarcity, and environmental justice Explains how to develop a business case and global strategy for social responsibility Includes both corporate and public policy perspectives on sustainability economics Covers emerging regulations on sustainability disclosure and responsible investing
