Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Sustainability has become a buzzword in business, politics, and academia--but are we truly making a difference? Are today's corporations and entrepreneurs prioritizing long- term sustainability, or is it merely a marketing stunt?

A sustainable strategy is no longer optional--it's essential. The time has come to rethink how we do business. It is not just to survive, but to lead with purpose. The traditional business model is under threat and more fragile than ever. It's time to transform profit-driven enterprises into purpose-led social businesses--aligning profitability with meaning, for both people and the planet. This is not merely about a balance sheet of profit and loss--it goes much deeper.

This book challenges conventional approaches to sustainability and redefines what it means to create lasting impact. Featuring insights from 30 world-class academics, researchers, and business leaders, this essential guide explores how businesses can move beyond profit-driven models to embrace sustainability as a core strategy for success.
