Being a Sustainable Firm: Takeaways for a Sustainability-oriented Management addresses strategies and management issues related to the latest innovations in the field of sustainability. It jointly provides theoretical and empirical contributions to give an overall view of the main issues and methods in sustainability management. It highlights opportunities, limits and challenges related to a management of sustainability innovation. It analyzes how firms become sustainable by applying the circular economy framework and accountability tools. It also presents a series of case studies in sectors particularly interested in sustainable development, including fashion, hospitality, and private-public partnerships for local sustainable communities. The book discusses the 2030 Agenda key goals, paying attention to SDG 9: Industry, innovation and infrastructure, SDG 11: Sustainable cities and communities, and SDG 12: Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns for their interrelations and their managerial implications at organizational and industry level. The volume also deals with the EU SDG indicators set and interconnections in order to have a deeper understanding of the social and environmental reporting systems for specific sectors. Based on this approach, the book examines critical issues in sustainability assessment, corporate challenges and sustainability models. The book provides useful support for scholars in managerial disciplines, such as strategy, operations and digitalization, international business, as well as in areas that involve social and environmental reporting systems and performance evaluation. It will be a valuable guide for researchers wishing to enhance their knowledge in this area of research and gives takeaways for managers and practitioners for implementing sustainable practices and actions. - Uses case studies, guidelines and sustainability reporting tools to compare different sustainability areas and understand critical issues, approaches and performance evaluation systems within the circular economy framework - Devotes specific chapters to SDG goals 9, 11 and 12 and the related sets of indicators to outline the coordinates within which firms manage sustainability in specific business areas. - Provides useful insights on ESG parameters and corporate sustainability to entrepreneurs, managers, practitioners, and stakeholders in the cutting-edge sectors of sustainability management
