Dalla quarta di copertina

Events in the twenty-first century have made it exceedingly clear that many of the business practices relied on by modern companies are unsustainable. Whether they entail economically, environmentally, or socially harmful consequences, these practices endanger the future viability of the market, our society, and the planet at large. The time has come for contemporary business leaders to address and correct these unsustainable habits once and for all.

In Clean: Lessons from Ecolab’s Century of Positive Impact, the authors deliver an insightful and practical sustainability toolkit that can be applied to any organization to embed sustainable business practices into your corporate governance and operations DNA.

From the creation of a company-wide vision that encourages the adoption of sustainable systems to attracting the right people who will enable and improve upon existing sustainability measures, the book provides actionable techniques for business process improvement.

Built on two distinct but related frameworks, the book presents a set of tools that leaders can create and deploy to build a sustainable organization. It also considers the focus of sustainability over time and helps companies begin and maintain their sustainability journeys throughout the cycle. You’ll learn to build momentum for your sustainability initiatives and cement your firm’s commitment to its new practices through continuous iteration and experimentation.

An essential resource for directors, executives, managers, and other business leaders, Clean: Lessons from Ecolab’s Century of Positive Impact will also earn a place on the bookshelves of consultants and other professionals who serve organizations seeking to build and improve sustainable practices that will stand the test of time.
