In her new book, Product Stewardship in Action, leading Australian consultant Helen Lewis acknowledges many corporates do see the practice as an ethical or social obligation, but it can be so much more. Lewis identifies how it can add value, both from a public and commercial perspective, be part of a stakeholder management strategy and, ultimately, be a source of competitive advantage. Looking at risks and opportunities, the book affirms the business strategy behind product stewardship and details the most effective ways businesses can implement a life-cycle approach. Lewis covers recycling and waste management constraints, the role of regulators and consumer expectations. There are a number of excellent industry case studies from around the world looking at packaging, e-waste and batteries. * Corporate Waste Solutions, Issue 5, December 2016 *
