Organización de empresas Resumen: This book addresses the following question: What is a sustainable society, and how can higher education help us to develop toward it? The core argument put forward is that the concept of sustainability reaches much farther than just the direct aspects of environmental threats and carbon emissions. Using higher education as a point of departure, the book shows that sustainability involves a broad range of disciplines, from nursing and nutrition to technology and management. It argues that a sustainable society entails a distinct perspective on society that influences our social thinking in terms of ethics, democracy and knowledge development. The book also discusses if (and if so, how) higher education can and should contribute to such a development based on the principles of the freedom of science in a liberal, democratic society. The book presents Mutual Competence Building as a concept higher education can adapt in order to contribute to a sustainable Society Nota de contenido: Introduction -- Part 1: Sustainability in a humanistic and cultural perspective -- Part 2: Sustainability in life science -- Part 3: Sustainability in technology and planning studies -- Part 4: Sustainability and the teaching of management and business development -- Part 5: The sustainable university -- Conclusions En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-15919-5 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=35600 Higher Education in a Sustainable Society : A Case for Mutual Competence Building [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Hans Chr.

Responsible Management / Richard Ennals (2014)  

Público ISBD Título : Responsible Management : Corporate Responsibility and Working Life Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Richard Ennals ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg Fecha de publicación: 2014 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: CSR, Sustainability, Ethics & Governance, ISSN 2196-7075 Número de páginas: IX, 161 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-642-55401-8 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Business  ethics  Philosophy  and  social  sciences  Labor  economics  Economic  sociology  Management  Ethics  Organizational  Studies,  Sociology  of  the  Social  Sciences  Economics Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: This book takes a critical view on corporate practice, governmental action and the general approach to Corporate Social Responsibility. It draws on experience from the Workplace Innovation movement and argues that, as with motherhood and apple pie, it is hard to oppose CSR, with a community of well-meaning people. It is however necessary to challenge the foundations on which it is based. Many accounts of CSR assume a consistent model of capitalism around the world. It is suggested that capitalism can be given a human face, as companies adopt programmes which go beyond the minimum legal requirements. This builds on traditions of optional corporate philanthropy. However, without changing the underlying working of the company, only cosmetic changes are made. In the author's words: “lipstick is applied to the capitalist pig”. It can be a mistake to read too much into “Responsible Management”, when the culture of management is designed around irresponsibility. Companies have developed elaborate schemes of outsourcing, in an environment of limited liability. This cannot easily be overcome through gestures. This book seeks to engage readers and to provoke thoughts. It can be angry and polemical, but it points a finger directly at ongoing superficial developments Nota de contenido: 1. Introduction -- 2. Management: A Social Dimension -- 3. Lipstick -- 4. Working Life -- 5. Cultural Situatedness -- 6. Denial -- 7. Quality as Empowerment -- 8. Workplace Innovation -- 9.
