Download or read book The Collaborative Enterprise written by Antonio Tencati and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Competitive economics produces an enormous abundance of goods and services but at an intolerable environmental and social cost. Competition has become an end in itself, which leads to detrimental effects on nature, society and future generations. A change of paradigm is needed. Business should respect the ecological and social limits in which it operates and embed its activities in the natural and social systems. This book promotes a collaborative attitude of doing business based on a positive view of the self and others. Theoretical contributions, reflections, cases, examples, and initiatives collected in the book show that a collaborative enterprise is not only possible but also a feasible and desirable alternative to the current, self-defeating, managerial models. Innovative firms seeking to build long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with all of their stakeholders while producing values for their business ecosystems represent well-grounded hopes for a really sustainable future.

Download or read book La responsabilit sociale delle imprese un percorso verso lo sviluppo sostenibile written by Federica Balluchi and published by G Giappichelli Editore. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La sostenibilità e la Responsabilità Sociale d’Impresa (RSI) rappresentano un tema di profondo interesse da parte delle imprese e degli operatori economici, politici e sociali. Per le realtà aziendali, è ormai di tutta evidenza che un successo economico duraturo non può prescindere dall’ottenimento e dal mantenimento del consenso dei propri stakeholder. È necessario quindi contemperare i molteplici interessi dei soggetti coinvolti e interessati all’attività svolta, in una prospettiva che abbraccia le istanze di natura reddituale e quelle di natura etico-sociale e ambientale. Nella definizione delle strategie aziendali è fondamentale valutare le attese di diversa natura e i differenti livelli di partecipazione e coinvolgimento che qualificano il rapporto fra azienda e stakeholder, radicando profondamente l’assunzione di responsabilità sociale nella governance aziendale. Nondimeno, gli aspetti di comunicazione della RSI rivestono un ruolo fondamentale sia per quanto attiene all’adempimento dei doveri assunti dall’azienda nei confronti dei propri stakeholder, sia con riferimento alla legittimazione che da una trasparente e attendibile comunicazione può derivare. Alla luce di quanto osservato, il volume si propone di offrire una lettura dei principali elementi di analisi in ambito di responsabilità sociale, con particolare riferimento agli aspetti di governance e di comunicazione. Sono quindi trattati i concetti fondamentali in tema di sostenibilità, responsabilità sociale d’impresa ed etica d’impresa considerandoli in una prospettiva strategica di governance aziendale. Successivamente il lavoro si concentra sulla comunicazione aziendale, con particolare riferimento agli strumenti di accountability diretta e di gestione della RSI.Il libro è il frutto della riflessione e dell’esperienza maturata da un gruppo di docenti e ricercatori che da tempo si occupano di sostenibilità, etica e responsabilità sociale di impresa; ogni contributo nasce dall’elaborazione personale dei diversi Autori, sia pure collocandosi in un comune e condiviso quadro di riferimento.

Download or read book La responsabilit sociale delle imprese written by PULEJO LUISA and published by G Giappichelli Editore. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sostenibilità e Responsabilità Sociale d’Impresa (RSI), rappresentano per imprese, operatori economici, politici e sociali un tema di profondo interesse. Per il successo economico delle aziende, infatti, è oggi imprescindibile, l’apprezzamento e il consenso dei propri stakeholder. È, quindi, necessario, in primis nella definizione delle strategie aziendali, contemperare gli interessi di tutti i soggetti coinvolti nell’attività svolta, in una prospettiva che abbraccia le istanze di natura economico-reddituale e quelle etiche, sociali e ambientali. Per questo, l’assunzione di responsabilità sociale deve essere profondamente radicata nella governance aziendale. Parimenti, gli aspetti di comunicazione della RSI rivestono un ruolo fondamentale sia per adempiere ai doveri assunti dall’azienda nei confronti dei propri stakeholder, sia per la legittimazione che da una trasparente e attendibile comunicazione può derivare. Il volume offre una illustrazione dei principali temi in ambito di sostenibilità e responsabilità sociale, con particolare riferimento agli aspetti di governance e di comunicazione, considerando anche le recenti forme di Società Benefit e B-Corp e i processi di assurance. Esso è frutto della riflessione e dell’esperienza di un gruppo di docenti e ricercatori che si occupano di sostenibilità, etica e responsabilità sociale di impresa; ogni contributo nasce dall’elaborazione personale dei diversi Autori, sia pure collocandosi in un comune e condiviso quadro di riferimento.

Download or read book The Individualized Corporation written by Sumantra Ghoshal and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1999-01-27 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on six years of research and hundreds of interviews with managers at every level of companies such as Intel, ABB, Canon, 3M, and McKinsey, The Individualized Corporation explores the collapse of an outmoded corporate form and reveals the emergence of a fundamentally different management philosophy--one that forces on the power of the individual as the driver of value creation in the company and the importance of individuality in management. The image of the "Organization Man" as a cog in a corporate machine has become both dated and dangerous. Rather than try to force employees into a homogeneous corporate mold based on a company's strategy, structure, and system, world-renowned scholars and consultants Sumantra Ghoshal and Christopher Bartlett argue that managers must embrace a philosophy based on purpose, process, and people that focuses on developing and leveraging the individual's unique talents and skills--a company's most important source of competitive advantage. Without proposing a universal solution or a quick-fix prescription, this important book provides an indispensable guide for those who must lead their companies into the next century.
