The book magnifies the concept of so-called ‘globalisation’ and examines the topic of business sustainability from a broad and integrated approach to business: encapsulating people, prosperity and the planet.

Chapters discuss the benefits organisations can attain with better governance, and social and environmental practices are also analysed.
