Download or read book The Relational Company written by Josep M. Lozano and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen a great debate and much progress in corporate social responsibility (CSR). Headway has been made in the development of the CSR agenda and the dissemination of management models. All these advances have been accompanied by an ideological debate that paradoxically always leads to a call for greater clarification of what is meant by CSR. This book stands at this crossroads. It can be seen as a chronicle and at the same time a synthesis of this whole debate. Yet ultimately it proposes a way of understanding CSR and a way of approaching it, and as such also takes sides in the debate. By making a distinction between social action, corporate social responsibility, the responsible and sustainable company and the relational company, the author clarifies the various ways of approaching the relationship between business and society, and opts for the expression 'relational company' as a reference framework for providing insight into the new role that the company can play in contemporary society, linked to the idea of citizenship. From this perspective, the author offers a re-reading of fundamental issues for business management such as the stakeholder relationship, the development of organizational values and ethics, accountability, and the meaning of success in business.

Download or read book Genesis del consejo written by Josep Tapiés and published by Editorial Almuzara. This book was released on 2012-12 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si gestionar una empresa no es un camino de rosas, gobernar una organización familiar suele tener alguna que otra espina de más por la peculiar mezcla de responsabilidades, trabajo y relaciones personales que en ella se producen. En este marco resulta aún más indispensable contar con un buen consejo de administración que sea capaz de decidir, con estrategia y sensatez y no con el corazón y las emociones de los lazos de sangre, el camino a seguir. Los consejos de administración de las empresas familiares han de tener las competencias, los procesos y las estructuras necesarias para responsabilizarse de la marcha de la empresa ante los accionistas, por muy familiares que estos sean. El consejo es siempre el responsable frente a los accionistas del resultado obtenido. Con el fin de guiar y explicar cómo lograr un buen consejo de administración, José María Navarro-Rubio y Josep Tàpies presentan un práctico manual de un órgano indispensable para la supervivencia y el crecimiento de la empresa familiar. Tal y como dichos autores explican, «ningún consejo de administración es totalmente inútil. Y, por lo general, basta con que el principal responsable ejecutivo quiera moverlo –trate los temas relevantes que afectan a la empresa– y con que el presidente quiera que funcione, para que sea bueno».

En La Sociedad que no quería ser Anónima su autora, a través de un personaje ficticio, Amaro Cifuentes, director de Responsabilidad Social de una compañía cualquiera, ayuda a desentrañar las claves de esta función empresarial a través de una mezcla sutil entre la realidad y la ficción, el día a día y el esperpento, la gestión ordenada y la ocurrencia caótica.

Download or read book Humanizing Business written by Michel Dion and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-30 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about humanizing business. In contrast to the mainstream modern management and leadership literature, this book provides distinctly humane perspectives on business. The volume travels outside the world of business to explore what Humanities – such as Philosophy, History, Literature, Creative Arts, and Cultural Studies – can offer to business. Renowned scholars from different Humanities disciplines, as well as management researchers exploring the heritage of Humanities, convey what it actually means to make business more humane. The book strives to humanize business. It aims to show that it is not people who have to suppress their human feelings, aspirations, and beliefs when they are at their workplaces, but it is business itself that needs to be redefined by the human norms of human beings. Companies should care about their employees and other stakeholders letting them be themselves, i.e. be human, at work and beyond. The book will be of interest to management scholars across various business disciplines. It can also be used as teaching material in the classroom with MBA students, especially in Business Ethics, Business and Society, Sustainability, Organizational Behavior, Human Resource Management and other management courses. The volume will also be of interest to scholars that work in different Humanities fields and whose interests span organizations, management, and business. Finally, many practitioners in the business world, especially those in managerial and leadership positions, will find the book both thought-provoking and useful for them as well.

Download or read book Corporate Responsibility Coalitions written by David Grayson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The significance of business-led corporate responsibility coalitions is indisputable. The WBCSD has 200 member companies with combined annual revenues of US$7 _trillion_; the UN Global Compact has almost 8,000 corporate members, over two-thirds of them from developing countries. It is estimated that there are more than 110 national and international generalist business-led CR coalitions. But there is now urgent need for informed and balanced analysis of their achievements, their progress and their potential. Why did these coalitions start and grow? What have been their impacts? Where are they heading now? Where should they be going? What is the future? In a period of austerity, the business and public sector must decide whether funding these coalitions is a priority. To meet current crises, there will have to be a great deal more business involvement; but efforts of individual corporations will not be sufficient. There is also a need for far more collective action among companies and more collaborative action between different sectors of society. Business-led CR coalitions with their decades of convening experience could play an important role in this process - if they are fit for purpose going forward. Authors David Grayson and Jane Nelson have been actively involved in such coalitions for decades. In Corporate Responsibility Coalitions they first explore the past, present and future of these coalitions: the emergence of new models of collective corporate action over the past four decades; the current state of play, and the increasing number, diversity and complexity in terms of how they not only network with each other but also engage in a much broader universe of institutions that are promoting responsible business practices. In addition, the book provides in-depth profiles of the most strategic, effective and long-standing coalitions, including: Business for Social Responsibility; Business in the Community; CSR Europe; Instituto Ethos; International Business Leaders Forum; the UN Global Compact; and the WBCSD. This book will be required reading for key supporters and potential partners of such coalitions in companies, governments, international development agencies, foundations, non-governmental organizations, academic institutions and think-tanks. It also aims to inspire a future generation of leaders to be more aware of the role of business as a partner in driving more inclusive, green and responsible growth, and to help them develop new types of leadership skills so that they can be effective in finding multi-stakeholder solutions to complex and systemic challenges.
