Understand how circular economy principles reshape business strategy and practice. The Circular Economy by Suzanne Smit and Uthayasankar Sivarajah is a practical and theory-informed textbook for postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students studying Circular Economy, Sustainable Business and related business and management courses. Aligned with contemporary module outcomes, it addresses why circular economy thinking is essential for modern business and how organizations can embed sustainability across core functions. The textbook examines how businesses can plan, implement and manage circular transitions by integrating circular economy principles, metrics and decision-making frameworks into everyday business activity. Structured around four interrelated stages, it explores strategic planning, resource organization, leadership and control mechanisms that enable organizations to move from linear to circular models. Real-world examples from Ikea, the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, The Guararapes Group and Flying Tiger demonstrate how circular strategies are applied in practice across industries and regions. This textbook includes: - A four-part framework covering planning, organizing, leading and controlling circular economy initiatives - Clear explanations of circular economy theories, strategies and performance metrics - Application of circular principles to finance, operations, supply chain management and business storytelling - Real-world examples illustrating how organizations manage circular transitions &gt;Whether studying sustainable business or preparing for roles in strategy, operations or sustainability, this textbook equips students with the knowledge and practical insight needed to support and lead circular transformation in organizations.

Schriften zum Stiftungs- und Gemeinnützigkeitsrecht

Die Autorin beleuchtet unter dem neuen Rechtsbegriff der "Gesellschaft in der Gesellschaft" das Phänomen, wenn alle oder mehrere Gesellschafter einer Gesellschaft eine schuldrechtliche Gesellschaftervereinbarung abschließen und hierdurch eine Gesellschaft in der Hauptgesellschaft ("Binnengesellschaft") gründen, meist in Form einer nicht rechtsfähigen Gesellschaft bürgerlichen Rechts. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf Binnengesellschaften in Kapitalgesellschaften.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Durch das Entstehen einer "Gesellschaft in der Gesellschaft" entsteht ein Spannungsverhältnis zwischen faktischer Nähe und rechtlicher Selbstständigkeit der beiden Verbände.&nbsp;Die Autorin untersucht dieses Spannungsverhältnis einschließlich seiner praktischen Implikationen und ordnet das Verhältnis der beiden Gesellschaften dogmatisch ein.

System Dynamics for Performance Management & Governance

This book presents a System Dynamics based model that rethinks the role of sustainability accounting in business contexts to highlight its role in supporting long-term corporate decision-making. It explores how materiality assessments both shape and are shaped by resource allocation decisions, stakeholder expectations, communication strategies, and financial outcomes, offering an innovative boundary-spanning and systemic perspective. Through a generic and quantitative model, the book captures the feedback-driven nature of materiality and sustainability reporting, overcoming static approaches in favour of dynamic and forward-looking ones. This reveals how misalignment between internal practices and the external role attributed to the report can lead to short-termism, showing the inner causes of greenwashing and stakeholder scepticism.
The book bridges the gap between sustainability reporting theory and practice, supporting firms in integrating materiality into their core strategic processes, while aligning with emerging international standards such as ESRS and IFRS ones. For doing this, the book is grounded in rigorous research methods, yet designed for practical applications for strategy development, performance management, and academic or executive training – for the interest of academics, professionals, students, and, more in general, readers in sustainability accounting and corporate management.

The Role of Sustainability Accounting in Supporting Decision Making

The Dynamics of Materiality

Palgrave Histories of Policing, Punishment and Justice

This book provides a comprehensive overview of police governance in England and Wales. This volume (I) starts from the Anglo Saxon period onwards. Volume II covers reform and development of tripartite governance from 1979-2025. These volumes analyse the key mechanisms and procedures that have sought to provide for the control and accountability of police organisations to external bodies and the means through which the conduct and work performed by police personnel is regulated internally. They discuss and evaluate the key debates and developments that have underpinned changes to police governance and the social, economic and political context within which these have emerged. They bring together a wide variety of material that relates to historical and contemporary aspects of policing. They draw upon primary (as well as secondary) source material including the use of historical documents for the early chapters. They speak to students taking courses in criminology and criminal justice studies and also those specialising in policing and to practitioners.

The Essential Book of Corporate Governance

The skills that built your business will destroy it if you don't evolve.

You created value by operating, deciding, and leading from the front. But companies that depend on founders die with them - not from competition, but from continuity failure. The hardest shift in business isn't growth. It's stepping back from operations while ensuring strategic discipline that outlives you.

Most owners get this transition wrong. They cling to running the company or walk away entirely. Both choices destroy value.

Whether you're an owner stepping back, a CEO navigating ownership dynamics, a board member seeking oversight clarity, a CFO bridging operations and ownership, or a family office protecting generational wealth-this is your evolution manual. Not theory-systems. Not advice-architecture. Not wishful thinking-what actually endures.

You'll learn how to:

Shape strategy without running execution
Judge CEOs and management without interference
Build succession that sustains value, not personalities
Allocate capital with discipline that outlasts leadership
Create governance that protects performance across generations

Ownership is not a reward for building a business.

It is a responsibility to protect what survives without you.

How to Win Your Seat, Build Value, and Lead with Impact

Harvard Business Review Board Member's Handbook

This book provides an engaging exploration of how corporate strategy and restructuring can significantly shape the competitiveness of firms.Corporations - firms with more than one business unit - require managers to decide how best to allocate resources to ensure the overall corporation thrives. This book provides a concise yet holistic and dynamic approach to corporate restructuring measures, such as alliances, R&amp;D investments, acquisitions, and the exiting of businesses. Successful corporate restructuring requires balancing several challenges and allows managers to adjust how a corporation relates to external trends, such as globalization, rapid technical development, competitive change, and various stakeholders. Corporate strategy is not a fixed solution to challenges; rather, corporations need to build a multi-relational and flexible restructuring capability. Chapters offer a practical account of the key challenges and tools of corporate strategists and are illustrated with real-life cases and data sets from both emerging and established markets across different countries. Each chapter includes discussion questions, key terms, and end-of-chapter summaries.This book is essential for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students studying corporate strategy, corporate governance, and international business.Online resources include chapter-by-chapter slides and teaching notes, including answers to discussion questions.

Embracing Technological Agility in Accounting and Business – Vol. 1

This book considers what kind of binding force judicial decisions (should) hold in modern societies. It focuses on the two most prominent legal traditions, common law and civil law. It explores the developing trend in civil law countries to expand the influence of judicial precedents, discusses the fundamental issues which arise from this trend, and looks at recent developments in common law countries. Through this prism, the book looks at the implications of the doctrine of judicial precedents and how it is construed in jurisdictions that recognise it. It investigates the impact of newly recognised legislative or quasi-legislative powers vested in high courts on the doctrine of separation of powers. It considers whether courts in common law and civil law systems share a uniform understanding of precedents. The book goes on to consider whether these developments are beneficial when it comes to addressing existing challenges or whether they lead to a host of new problems, potentially exacerbating the crisis of judicial legitimacy. In relation to the hierarchical nature of civil law justice systems, it asks whether binding rulings from higher courts pose a potential threat to substantive judicial independence, limiting the open and pluralistic dialogue between lower and higher courts. It then goes on to reflect whether binding opinions from the highest judicial instances encroach upon the prerogatives of legislative bodies, resulting in the creation of suboptimal laws.

Presents a new analysis of judicial precedents, and in particular the growing desire in civil law jurisdictions to expand the influence of judicial precedents to ordinary courts.
