It's a comprehensive guide that offers practical insights and strategies for embedding sustainable methods in everyday operations, making it a valuable resource for business leaders and sustainability enthusiasts alike.

Make your business more sustainable, and therefore more innovative and profitable, with this practical guide filled with case studies and 'top tips'.

Description

The case for business sustainability has already been made; organisations can no longer ignore the issue when climate change affects supply chains and customer expectations require them to take action. It has also been proven that businesses operating sustainably drive innovation, build brand value, and are more profitable.

It is therefore time to shift the conversation from the 'why' of business sustainability to the 'how'. The Sustainable Business Handbook is a practical 'how-to' guide which aims to demystify jargon and provide practical tools and tips for busy managers. Rather than preaching the importance of sustainability, it cuts straight to how businesses can become more resilient and successful in the long term by becoming more sustainable.

This indispensable book is based around twenty top tips for transforming your business and is interspersed with a range of individual profiles and case studies of organisations successfully embracing sustainability. With guidance on defining your organisational purpose, engaging stakeholders, and creating the right culture, The Sustainable Business Handbook outlines how to shift Corporate Responsibility from being a bolt-on to business operations to being a source of innovation and new business, as well as societal good.
