Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.
Design/methodology/approach
This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. 10;
Findings
Firms can indicate their genuine commitment to economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainability through substantive engagement with all the different stakeholders involved. Making stakeholder engagement an inherent part of voluntary sustainability reports signals awareness and concern for relevant sustainability issues. On the contrary, reports limiting disclosure to more generic information invite assumption that preserving corporate image is the company's real objective.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
