Business and Sustainability

1.5 credits · Graduate

Rethinking the role of business in society has added new concepts to organization theory, including corporate social responsibility, ecological sustainability and resilience, triple-bottom line management, natural capital, shared or sustainable value creation and social entrepreneurship.
