Multi-criteria Decision-Making Approaches to Sustainable Consumption and Production

&lt;p&gt;Sustainable Consumption And Production.- Application of MCDM to Reinforcing Eco-efficiency of supply chain.- Interaction of stakeholders involved in sustainable consumption and production.- Application of MCDM to sustainable materials selection.- Application of MCDM to waste management.&lt;/p&gt;


Helping business leaders understand what their sustainability priorities are, this book is an essential guide exploring what stalls company-wide environmental action and how to turn it around.
 
The science is clear. Businesses need to act. And while research shows CEOs and other leaders are on board with sustainability, what we see in reality is rising emissions and companies retracting their net-zero commitments. In order to solve grave environmental concerns related to non-renewable energy use, climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, leaders from all disciplines must collaborate to change company culture and develop long-term solutions.
 
Exploring the challenges of leading sustainability strategies and the regenerative business models needed to implement positive change, The Sustainability Playbook is driven by insights from global leaders and CEOs. Including essential guidance from CEOs at Chanel, IKEA, Microsoft and Patagonia Provisions to name a few, this book helps business leaders understand what their sustainability priorities are, what stalls global action and how businesses can turn it around.

The Leader’s Guide to Action

The Sustainability Playbook

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.

This book addresses the various challenges that arose during the two periods of Indonesian President Jokowi's administration. These included the global economic crisis, increasingly complex geopolitical dynamics, such as competition between major powers, the Covid-19 pandemic and its ramifications for Indonesia, as well as issues of border disputes, human trafficking, and the situation in Palestine. Addressing these challenges necessitates a forward-thinking Indonesian foreign policy strategy. As the 2024 General Election has taken place and President Jokowi's term came to an end, this book presents a timely and comprehensive discussion on Indonesian foreign policy and diplomacy and its associated challenges—those of the past, and those now facing the current administration. Relevant to Indonesian and international political scientists and social scientists, this interdisciplinary book—which includes perspectives from both scholars and practitioners—confronts Jokowi's policies relating to the economy, territorial, migration, religion, and all aspects of Indonesian society, in the context of the former government.

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.

Why do some people thrive under uncertainty while others freeze? Why do organizations consistently misjudge their best decision-makers?

Risk Efficacy presents a groundbreaking framework for measuring decision-making quality independent of outcomes. Drawing on research from cognitive science, organizational psychology, and high-stakes domains including trauma medicine, trading, and professional motorsport, this book reveals why traditional performance metrics systematically misread the people organizations most need.

The Risk Efficacy framework evaluates decision-making across four dimensions: Calibration (alignment between confidence and accuracy), Informed Navigation (quality of information gathering and synthesis), Resilience (capacity for adaptation and recovery), and Outcome Achievement (results in context of process quality).

Through case studies ranging from the D-Day invasion to Chilean mining rescues, Wu demonstrates how measurement systems optimized for stable environments fail catastrophically in volatile ones-and how this creates systematic bias against adaptive thinkers, particularly women and cross-domain experts whose decision-making styles don't match traditional leadership stereotypes.

This book is essential reading for leaders building teams for uncertain futures, HR professionals designing assessment systems, individuals seeking to understand and demonstrate their decision-making strengths, and anyone navigating a world where intelligent adaptation is as critical as good planning.

Risk Efficacy is infrastructure for a new way of measuring what matters.
