All the chapter authors are leading thinkers, who are pushing the boundaries of conventional thinking about corporate citizenship and sustainability to generate innovative models and practices. This book raises the important issues of the day and provides observations on what may be too new yet to be the subject of theoretical studies.

"In Citizenship and Sustainability in Organizations, their book of readings, David F Murphy and Alison Marshall of the University of Cumbria bring some early pioneers of corporate social responsibility-including Sir Geoffrey Chandler, Malcolm McIntosh and Allen White-into the world of Extinction Rebellion, Fridays For Future and the world of 'Deep Adaptation' championed by their university colleague Jem Bendell. The result: an intriguing bridging of different epochs of CSR and sustainability, and of ideas and agendas. A key reference for an agenda whose time has come." John Elkington, Founder and Chief Pollinator at Volans Ventures, UK.
"As we bear witness to the unprecedented global changes facing us at this time and try to digest the enormity of their impact, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and difficult to know how to respond. Daunted by the scale of it all, we may get lost in preliminary questions, such as 'where to start' and 'what is most urgent'. In this book, we are guided through an inspiring sequence of some of the most important issues of the day. Led by thought leaders and scholars who dare to open up some of the complex problems in critical leadership studies, we are invited to engage with each issue against the backdrop of the inherent dual nature of the present moment: the largest problems offer us the biggest opportunities. In this book, David F. Murphy and Alison Marshall are guiding us on a journey into the complex territory of citizenship and sustainability in organizations. The invitation is to begin a new dialogue about what matters - one in which we may find the courage to go deeper than ever." Dr Charlotte von Bülow, Senior Lecturer in Leadership, Faculty of Business and Law at Bristol Business School, University of the West of England, UK.
"It is challenging for leaders, educators, students, and the public to grasp the significance and implications of the social purpose phenomenon occurring in all types of organizations, corporations, non-profits, and public. Two models and frameworks describing this phenomenon are citizenship and sustainability. The "Citizenship and Sustainability in Organizations" monograph series and, in particular the introductory book Citizenship and Sustainability in Organizations: Exploring and Spanning the Boundaries, are useful sources to increase readers' awareness and understanding by identifying the dimensions and dynamics of organizational social purpose." Professor Robert W. Sexty, Faculty of Business Administration, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada.
"When the late and much missed Malcolm McIntosh saw a tree that he liked, he would take a cutting for his garden in Bath. In transplanting Malcolm's essay from the Greenleaf reader Something to Believe In, the editors Murphy and Marshall have brought a hint of Malcolm's exuberant optimism to the present volume. Right now - with the world in the grip of the psychopathic death-cult (pace Boddy and Baxter in chapter two) that is neoliberal capitalism - we need all the optimism we can get. And some of what Moratis and Melissen call, in chapter ten, naive intelligence might be useful too, to help us see past the seeming inevitability of current arrangements. This practical and inspiring book is full of good ideas for breakthrough CSR practice and advocacy. As Wayne Visser once put it, CSR is dead, long live CSR!" Professor Richard Little, Visiting Professor/Joint Research Principal, SWPS University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Warsaw, Poland and Professor of Sustainability Leadership, Initiative for Leadership and Sustainability (IFLAS), University of Cumbria, UK.
"At itdUPM we have consistently argued that collective intelligence is needed to develop solutions to complex and multidimensional challenges, and foster systems change for sustainability. This book assists us to think more profoundly about the human and social relationships that inform such collaborative possibilities. As well as valuable insights into some of the different forms and processes that collaboration encompasses, the reflections on radical partnering by Jem Bendell and on innovative place-based ecosystems by the book's editors, Alison Marshall and David F. Murphy, are of particular relevance for those with an interest in gaining a deeper understanding of multi-actor relationships and their potential."
