Summary

Using a simple, straightforward scorecard, this book proves that sustainability makes economic as well as ecological sense and guides leaders in creating and scaling their own green supply-chain initiative。



For decades, sustainability books have pointed a path to more efficient, effective ways to save resources and money, but they just don't seem to be moving the needle。 The problem is the sustainably minded haven't convinced skeptics that powerful economic incentives really exist。

Using a unique, practical scorecard understandable to any executive in or outside of operations, this book, once and for all, makes the pragmatic argument for sustainable supply chains crystal clear。 In the midst of "green fatigue," many leaders have lost sight of the pure success any business can achieve by focusing on hidden supply costs and toxic inputs。 The authors show operations and implementation-focused business leaders how to innovate their supply chains to introduce and scale sustainable solutions。 Through repeatable, reliable processes that address operating model design and new key performance indicators to scaling, this book is a practical guide that leaders can rely on to make their existing systems more sustainable and profitable。

A concise and approachable guide for how corporations can assess and track progress in sustainability。 This book also has some great tidbits of information and examples。 Loved it。

Joan Ball

This realistic, yet optimistic book establishes the criticality of rethinking everything and, unlike so many books that are heavy on ideals and light on implementable approaches, provides a roadmap for putting sustainability at the center of business strategy and tactics。 A must read for future-focused leaders。

I read plenty of non-fiction science books。 The problem with most books is that while the science is there, the authors fail to showcase how to use the science effectively。 I want practical strategies。 I want access into how to improve my well-being and the groups that I care about。 This book nails practicality。 As a bonus, it was a very easy, effortless read。 Well-done。
