Reviews

This brilliant collection of essays lays the foundation for building a sustainable society. All boards of directors and their leadership should make this book required reading. --Warren Bennis, Professor I love this book! This book, or rather this enterprise, is the fruit of a collaboration among dozens of practitioners, businesspeople, and scholars no wonder it's so useful. Their holistic vision has produced a cornucopia of actionable tools and information for audiences in multiple contexts. And timely too! Generations of children to come, who will surely be educated beyond the old dichotomies of the industrial era, will thank these writers. --Hilary Bradbury-Huang, Editor in Chief, Action Research In recent years, we have been inundated with books focused on the content aspects of sustainable business. Few, however, provide any useful guidance on how to effectively implement sustainability in a real organization. The Sustainable Enterprise Fieldbook fills this virtual void by focusing on the human side of sustainable enterprise the organizational, behavioral, and even cognitive challenges. It is a must-read for anyone trying to make sustainability happen in the real world. --Stuart L. Hart, Steven Grossman Enowed Chair in Sustainable Business When you step back and look at our takemakewaste industrial system in the harsh realities of the larger (and ever more constraining) natural world, you start to understand the profound depth and scope of the problem, which can paralyze rather than energize the changes needed. Managers everywhere desperately need books like The Sustainable Enterprise Fieldbook in order to get started on the journey. --Peter Senge, founder of SoL (Society for Organizational Learning); Senior Lecturer
