Wilkins Gill: Technology Transfer for
Renewable Energy

Technology Transfer for Renewable Energy

Today's marketplace is shaped by habits of excess that threaten both consumer well-being and the environment, placing overconsumption, materialism, and unsustainable business practices at the heart of contemporary marketing debates. Mindful Consumption and Marketing redefines how markets, organizations, and individuals navigate demand and growth by positioning mindfulness as a transformative lens for theory and practice. Situated at the intersection of consumer behavior, marketing strategy, and sustainable enterprise, it shows how conscious awareness of both internal experiences and external market forces can shape more deliberate and purposeful choices. Krittinee Nuttavuthisit advances a vision of marketing as a moral and relational practice, where value creation balances profitability with consumer well-being, social equity, and ecological responsibility. Through a combination of theory-driven chapters on consumer psychology, sociocultural context, and decision-making, alongside rich case-based illustrations, she charts a forward-looking path for scholars and practitioners seeking more balanced and sustainable market development.

Mindful Consumption and Marketing

The first of its kind, this book shows that enterprises owned and managed by their own staff as cooperatives, estimated to be over 300,000 in the world and to employ over 15 million people, can be economically sustainable in the long term and substantially contribute to community development.Comprising 26 case studies, the book showcases how by providing membership and control to worker-member-owners and promoting community empowerment, worker-owned cooperatives have built sustainable businesses and fostered democratic decision-making across various sectors and geographies. The analysis emphasises the importance of education and training, capital accumulation facilitated by supportive regulatory frameworks and inter-cooperative systems (networks, agencies, federations, and peer groups), and the role of worker cooperativism in promoting equality, community development, and environmental sustainability. Worker and social cooperatives are well-positioned to address global challenges by promoting sustainable development, equality, and community-centric solutions. Worker cooperativism has shown a strong capacity to innovate socially, but also technologically, including over the past few years, while providing high levels of employment security and welfare.The book is of great use to practitioners within the cooperative movement, in particular the worker-members of worker and social cooperatives themselves, as well as developers of such cooperatives within the cooperative movement, but also among development NGOs and social movements.

Worker-owned Cooperatives Across the World

Cooperativism at Work

This book explores the crucial role of "remembering" the fundamental purpose of firms' existence especially in today's context: Meeting individuals' and societal needs. Through seven chapters, the book shed light on the issue of the integration of new technologies within value propositions, by examining their positive impacts on both individual and societal wellbeing. Beginning with an examination of evolving consumers expectations and the core mission of companies, it proceeds through a rigorous analysis of digital technologies impact on wellbeing. Chapters intricately explore themes such as the adoption of mobile health technologies, the role of AI in shaping positive emotions, and the transformative potential of gamification in cultural heritage experiences. Nonetheless, a qualitative examination of sustainable digital business models offering practical insights into fostering wellbeing through technological innovation is also presented. Ultimately, the book culminates in a holistic discussion on integrating digital technologies to enhance collective wellbeing, offering comprehensive insights and conclusive trajectories for future considerations. The book also offers some Case Studies and specialists' perspectives exploring real success stories deriving from firms, managers, scholars and practitioners committed to the mission of positively integrating managing new technologies.

The extractive economy is failing. The regenerative economy is being built. This is the definitive field manual for entrepreneurs, investors, and changemakers ready to stop tinkering with a broken system—and start building what replaces it. When Laurie Lane-Zucker coined the term impact entrepreneur in 2011, he named an emerging movement. Fifteen years later, that movement has reached a breakthrough. The Impact Entrepreneur Breakthrough maps how to join it. Part manifesto and part operating manual, this book shows how enterprises, ownership, capital, markets, security, and culture must transform together—and provides practical tools to begin immediately. Drawing on three decades at the forefront of impact investing and regenerative economics, Lane-Zucker introduces powerful new frameworks, including the Five Pillars of Real Security, the Prevention Dividend, and Defense as a Service—reimagining protection as shared resilience rather than fortified isolation. You’ll learn to <ul><li>design enterprises that heal communities and ecosystems;&nbsp;</li><li>structure ownership so mission survives growth and succession;&nbsp;</li><li>deploy capital for long-term resilience;&nbsp;</li><li>rethink risk through prevention and collaboration;&nbsp;and</li><li>translate regenerative values into concrete strategies and decisions.</li></ul> Each chapter moves from analysis to action, with real-world applications from practitioners already building the Impact Economy. The breakthrough is happening now. The question is whether you’ll participate.

A Field Manual for the Regenerative Economy

The Impact Entrepreneur Breakthrough

This book is the first investigation of the relationship between EU digital sovereignty and sustainability strategies. It maps the ambitions and limitations of EU digital strategic autonomy and explores the structural challenges underlying its relationship with its green transition objectives in the context of the ongoing wars in neighbouring European countries and the consequent tensions in the EU energy sector. The EU is racing to achieve technological independence from third countries and foreign multinational companies to protect its digital sovereignty and preserve its fundamental rights. In the EU, digitalisation and the green transformation are seen as twin transitions. Yet, EU digital sovereignty strategies have a significant environmental cost. Reaching a status of strategic autonomy of the EU at the level of digital infrastructures, products, services and data implies higher energy consumption and exploitation of natural resources. Moreover, the geopolitical tensions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine have provoked an unprecedented energy crisis, which is affecting EU economies and impacting objectives of the twin transitions. The book offers an interdisciplinary analysis of the major EU regulatory and policy instruments in this field, providing an invaluable guide for academics, practitioners, and policymakers navigating the complex issues of preserving digital sovereignty and addressing climate change in times of war and energy crisis.

Hersteller leichter Nutzfahrzeuge agieren in einem komplexen Spannungsfeld zwischen ökonomischen und ökologischen Zielsetzungen. Auf der einen Seite müssen LNF-Hersteller aufgrund hoher Fixkosten und einer angespannten wirtschaftlichen Situation hohe Deckungsbeiträge erwirtschaften, um profitabel zu sein. Auf der anderen Seite müssen sie durch die ehrgeizigen europäischen Ziele zur Reduktion der Treibhausgasemissionen ihre CO¿ -Flottenwerte kontinuierlich reduzieren und festgelegte Grenzwerte einhalten. Die Steigerung der Deckungsbeiträge bei simultaner Senkung der CO¿-Flottenemissionen stellt Hersteller leichter Nutzfahrzeuge jedoch vor große Herausforderungen. Vor diesem Hintergrund verfolgt dieses Buch das Ziel, eine Entscheidungsunterstützung für die taktische Absatzplanung zu entwickeln, die bei der Zusammensetzung der optimalen Fahrzeugflotte unterstützt. Im Fokus der Entscheidung steht die Festlegung der zu verkaufenden Stückzahl je Fahrzeugvariante, je Absatzmarkt und je Preisstufe.

The Strategic Playbook for Sustainability in Luxury Industries

Purposeful Luxury

Leading experts on greenwashing offer a playbook for achieving competitive advantage by combatting misleading claims and building trust. Greenwashing has reached epidemic proportions, and consumer confidence in business sustainability commitments is falling. Those most affected by greenwashing are genuine green firms, and companies truly committed to sustainability goals can find it hard to communicate their commitments and distinguish themselves in this sea of greenwash. These companies need to confront their rivals head on to win the trust of stakeholders. From Greenwash to Green Trust offers a new paradigm for how to gain and maintain competitive advantage in a world of exaggerated green claims. &nbsp;&nbsp;Building on more than a decade of research on greenwashing, Tom Lyon and Wren Montgomery offer a three-step approach for companies determined to rise above their greenwashing competitors:&nbsp;&nbsp; <ul> 	<li> 		Understand why trust has been broken: First, learn how greenwashing works, and hurts, in today's world.&nbsp;&nbsp; 	</li> 	<li> 		Build trust: Then, look in the mirror, acknowledge your own shortcomings, and substantiate your company's commitment to sustainability goals. 	</li> 	<li> 		Leverage trust: Finally, create powerful relationships to outcompete greenwashers and turn integrity into lasting advantage. 	</li> </ul> In the end, the message of From Greenwash to Green Trust is a positive one. While there are plenty of businesses doing the "right" thing on sustainability, with this novel strategic approach to beating greenwashing, businesses can center transparency and trust—to restore consumer confidence and support rapid growth.
