Download or read book Developing Corporate Social Responsibility written by Francesco Perrini and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Perrini et al provide a detailed, authoritative look at the evolving European perspective on corporate social responsibility. They show how Europe has moved from follower status to leading edge practice. The book is the best current indicator of what the next stages of CSR will look like.' - Thomas W. Dunfee, University of Pennsylvania, US The rapidly increasing attention devoted to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has resulted in the term 'CSR' being applied to myriad dissimilar phenomena. The authors therefore aim to dispel this confusion by presenting a multi-faceted view of socially responsible corporate behavior and related themes. They provide a conceptualization of CSR that emphasizes the role of the adoption and implementation of specific CSR strategies and their impact on corporate social and economic performance.

Download or read book I sistemi di gestione ambientale tra passato e futuro written by Marco Frey and published by EGEA spa. This book was released on 2011-03-09T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I sistemi di gestione ambientale sono uno strumento sempre pi diffuso fra le organizzazioni dei settori produttivi e dei servizi (incluse le pubbliche amministrazioni), grazie soprattutto alla spinta propulsiva degli schemi di certificazione volontaria EMAS ed ISO 14001 che, garantendo un riconoscimento di eccellenza di terza parte, possono conferire una posizione di vantaggio competitivo a coloro che scelgono di migliorare le proprie prestazioni ambientali. I due schemi hanno avuto una storia parallela di sviluppo e diffusione in Italia, che in molti frangenti si incrociata e sovrapposta, giungendo quasi simultaneamente a doppiare la boa dei dieci anni di applicazione. In coincidenza con questo percorso evolutivo, anche l'Osservatorio sui Sistemi Integrati di Gestione Ambientale dello IEFE dell'Universit Bocconi ha varcato la soglia del proprio decennale. Il volume intende celebrare questa ricorrenza proponendo una summa dei risultati dei progetti e delle sperimentazioni che sono state condotte dai ricercatori IEFE in questo arco temporale. I contenuti del volume rappresentano una sintesi ragionata dei diversi filoni di ricerca, organizzati secondo una scaletta di chiavi di lettura ritenute particolarmente interessanti per valutare e comprendere il passato e il futuro dei sistemi di gestione ambientale. La trattazione spazia pertanto dagli approcci pi metodologici (l'identificazione e valutazione degli aspetti indiretti, lo sviluppo di indicatori ambientali), alle analisi di impatto dei sistemi di gestione (sulla competitività, sulla normativa), fino all'approfondimento di specifici ambiti di applicazione dei sistemi, quali ad esempio la dimensione territoriale e distrettuale, che hanno riscontrato particolare successo in Italia.

Download or read book Cultural and Tourism Innovation in the Digital Era written by Vicky Katsoni and published by Springer. This book was released on 2020-02-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores a wide range of emerging cultural, heritage, and other tourism issues that will shape the future of hospitality and tourism research and practice in the digital and innovation era. It offers stimulating new perspectives in the fields of tourism, travel, hospitality, culture and heritage, leisure, and sports within the context of a knowledge society and smart economy. A central theme is the need to adopt a more holistic approach to tourism development that is aligned with principles of sustainability; at the same time, the book critically reassesses the common emphasis on innovation as a tool for growth-led and market-oriented development. In turn, fresh approaches to innovation practices underpinned by ethics and sustainability are encouraged, and opportunities for the exploration of new research avenues and projects on innovation in tourism are highlighted. Based on the proceedings of the Sixth International Conference of the International Association of Cultural and Digital Tourism (IACuDiT) and edited in collaboration with IACuDiT, the book will appeal to a broad readership encompassing academia, industry, government, and other organizations.

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 Communicating Globally written by Don E Schultz and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2000-06-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can a company effectively communicate its message to customers and prospects all over the world? How can it ensure that its branding messages "travel"? Designed to help executives position and leverage marketing communication in the global arena and use it to their ongoing strategic advantage, Communicating Globally shows how to successfully strategize, select appropriate communication tactics, and then execute a global communication plan that encompasses all sources of communication, both internal and external. Based on the strong theoretical foundations of integrated marketing communication (IMC), Communicating Globally offers a practitioner's perspective on integrated global marketing communication (IGMC) in action through vignettes, four complete case studies of well-recognized multinational brands, and one study case. Praise for Communicating Globally "In the 21st century, the ability of ad agencies to provide worldwide, integrated marketing services for their clients will become essential. Only those marketers and agencies with the ability to brand products and services globally will thrive. Communicating Globally provides a roadmap on how to do it right." O. Butch Drake, president-CEO, American Association of Advertising Agencies "No one can provide a guaranteed formula for future success, but Communicating Globally comes awfully close. By combining an astute knowledge of the global marketplace, emerging trends and technologies, and good old common sense, Don Schultz and Philip Kitchen illuminate the path for successful brand building in the 21st century." Ed Faruolo, vice president, corporate marketing communications, CIGNA Corporation "Don Schultz has done it again! His unique and highly readable approach is a must for companies looking to market globally in the new century. Communicating Globally offers an important road map through the maze of global marketing communications." James R. Gregory, CEO, Corporate Branding, LLC "This book is important because it brings the concept of integrated marketing communications (IMC) into full international focus for the first time. This focus is maintained throughout the whole structure and it makes the book a truly conceptual work. The case studies that illustrate the practical ramification of international IMC yield significant general as well as specific lessons." John Philip Jones, Syracuse University "The 1990's introduced integrated marketing--understanding and communicating relevantly with customers by using information. Communicating Globally now takes the same principles and adapts them to today's dynamic global marketplace. Even better, it is written in a style that makes it easy for a non-marketer to fully understand the importance of managing a brand." John R Wallis, vice president of marketing, Hyatt International Corporation
