Comparative CSR and Sustainability : New Accounting for Social Consequences
This book breaks new ground by providing a structured and cohesive set of contributions on the actions, developments, problems and theories of corporate social responsibility (CSR).With new case studies from the UN’s Least Developed Countries (LDCs), contributors in this book investigate how firms in Eastern and Western countries are responding to and making use of evolving CSR guidelines. The book addresses the following questions: is CSR simply greenwashing or an authentic commitment to responsible corporate citizenship?Has globalization drawn CSR conduct in LDCs closer to that of industrialized countries?Stakeholder theory, actor–network theory and a new orbital theory of accountability are applied to give coherence to the case studies.Other chapters address greenwashing in reports, the impact of CSR in socially stigmatized occupations, an analysis on what responsibility precisely entails in CSR, and the interface between law and CSR.The book also considers the impact of COVID-19 on the hospitality industry, and includes a contribution from Ukrainian scholars, one written while their city of Kharkiv was under attack by Russian forces. This book will be a useful reference to those interested in discussions on crises, climate change, and SDGs and realizing sustainable goals through CSR.

The Consequences
What happens when we are left behind? The Consequences is a hybrid collection of prose and poetry by Max Brett.It is an autofictional examination of the pain of a transatlantic relocation from New York to the blanketing beige of Paris to rejoin a totemic muse.The collection also focuses on corgi attacks, Maryland, painful anxiety, the struggle to accept the things one cannot change, the third party and the past as adamantine shackles.The "towering sexual iconography of Mike Immerman" looms over the disorientation of a reluctant resident in “the City of Light.”Max Brett's previous collection of poetry, Nor Do These, was published in 2019.

Intended Consequences: How to Build Market-Leading Companies with Responsible Innovation
WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLERA pioneering venture capitalist provides an actionable framework for founders and executives to create innovative, enduring companies built for growth and for societal good. The Milton Friedman philosophy that companies exist only to increase shareholder value is dead and buried.The old Silicon Valley tenets of “move fast and break things,” minimum viable products, and hyper engagement at any cost must be replaced with new principles for an era of responsible innovation.We can no longer manage businesses solely for growth.With innovation comes responsibility: to generate returns beyond profits and to recenter technology as a force for good in the world.This requires a shift in the way organizations approach and value work. A company’s mindset—its intent to do good, avoid harmful consequences, and innovate responsibly—is not enough.That mindset must be supported by a business model, a mechanism that leaders must intentionally and proactively build along with the company from the ground up, one that incentivizes and rewards the organization for fulfilling its intentions.Companies need a new set of KCIs, or key consequence indicators, that measure factors such as its impact on customers’ energy consumption, whether its product is being used equally across socioeconomic groups, or if it is actually solving the social problem it is addressing.Not only is this the right thing to do—increasingly, it is what customers, employees, and shareholders demand of business. In this inspiring, practical, and actionable guide, Hemant Taneja:lays out the argument for why a new model of company building and leadership is necessary—and how it can lead to better performanceexplores why social-good businesses are some of the greatest opportunities today, detailing examples of billion-dollar startups that are addressing inequality, climate change, systemic societal problems, and chronic disease—all while generating profit and positive shareholder returnspresents a topic-by-topic road map that addresses business models, artificial intelligence, ethical growth, culture, governance, and good citizenshipIntended Consequences is designed as the ultimate playbook for founders, entrepreneurs, leadership teams, and investors on how to build and maintain a responsible innovation company.
