The need to develop an integrated approach to ecological sustainability is explored, and opportunities and constraints on incremental and transformational change reviewed. Special consideration is given to the types of business principles that can be readily applied; reviewing outmoded business strategy approaches that ill-fit environmental and sustainability management; and exploring new possibilities for new challenges. In a graduate setting, this course reviews the new business challenges of the 21st century and looks at the role of Corporate strategy in achieving a more sustainable future. . |
