 | CSR, Sustainability, and Leadership Subjects: Built Environment; Economics Finance Business & Industry; Education; Sustainability Education Training & Leadership; Planning; Business Management and Accounting; Sustainability Assessment; Strategic Management; Leadership; Corporate Social Responsibility & Business Ethics; Organizational Studies; With the acceptance of CSR and Sustainability as important business performance indicators, it is timely now to assess the impact that leadership has on the development of these processes. CSR, Sustainability, and Leadership seeks to explore the integration of these three elements through an examination of concerns and trends in contemporary organisations. The authors discuss empirical and theoretical studies which focus on processes and practices which inform the field. Organisations wish not only to participate in responsible behaviour, but also actively lead within their local environments. However, businesses are failing in their execution of CSR because of ineffective leadership. Business leaders are central to an organisation's purpose in the world and this book will inform a robust discussion about social issues which are pressing to scholars, policymakers, not-for-profit organisations and students.
