Rezensionen

"As sustainability is moving center stage, we need to better understand how to evaluate the social and environmental performance of companies and the contribution of the fast-growing industry sustainability service providers. This book will be a source of inspiration for scholars working on such questions."

Professor Guido Palazzo, University of Lausanne

"This book represents a novel and highly relevant contribution to conceptualizing sustainability performance in businesses. A reading recommendation for business sustainability consultants, scholars, and practitioners alike!"

Associate Professor Romana Rauter, University of Graz

"Implementing effective sustainability business strategies

is a major challenge of our time. This book addresses the challenge spot on and demands academics and non-academics to think in new directions."

Tobias Kind-Rieper, Global Lead Mining & Metals, WWF





"With empirical rigor and trenchant analysis, Dr. Imbrogiano considers the interplay of the sustainability service sector with the automotive industry. The book's publication is particularly timely, as we transition to low emission electric cars and need a primer on dealing with a new set of complex supply chains."





Professor Saleem H. Ali, University of Delaware

"Jean-Pierre has produced a rigorous framework for describing five axes of sustainability performance. Companies already engaging comprehensively in sustainable sourcing and supply chains will recognize them, and they are of assistance to those that are just starting on this journey."

Julian Fox, Director Nature Programmes, Tetra Pak
