| Summary |
This book introduces℗ℓthe integrated℗ℓmanagement℗ℓconcept of "Sustainable Value Creation", which delivers℗ℓsustainability ℓ́ℓinside-outℓ́ℓ from the core business. It is based on the premise that sustainability can provide a platform for growth, ℗ℓif it is℗ℓimplemented in a companyℓ́ℓs℗ℓproducts, services℗ℓand℗ℓsupply chains (combined also℗ℓknown as the 'Value Chain').℗ℓManaging the Value Chain℗ℓfrom the outset with a sustainability mindset subsequently allows profitable economical, ecological and societal growth. It combines the need for increased sustainability and its implementation in the operations of a company. The book addresses the following issues: How do economic, environmental and societal factors impact the value-creation process of a company? What requirements and expectations need to be met to balance economic, ecologic and societal value creation? What are the building blocks and measures that can be utilized on the journey towards building a sustainable value chain? What benefits can be achieved through sustainable value chains? What are the practical examples of sustainable value℗ℓchains in leading companies that can inspire others to follow? The book includes contributions from the following organisations and companies: Beiersdorf, SAP, Klenk und Hoursch, VAUDE, Infineon Technologies, Independent Capital Management, BASF, Nanogate, the Federal German Council for Sustainable Development, Henkel, Symrise, shared.value.chain, Siemens, Fairphone and Thin Air Factory |
