While sustainability has become fashionable, both business and government are following the wrong path merely applying temporary solutions that are less unsustainable, but that will fail to provide for the needs of future generations. To shift the pendulum, the authors envision a new story, driven by caring, as opposed to needing, and rooted in the beauty of a transformative change that we can and must make. This book provides a roadmap to a flourishing future, satisfying and truly sustainable consumption, and a new understanding of our place in the world. A clarion call to action, this candid and insightful discussion leaves readers with cautious hope.
These are unexpectedly deep and moving conversations about where we can go, and where we must go, both as individuals and as a planet. Its a hardheaded account of the sacredness of the earth, and what that implies for our work and society.
Bill McKibben, author of Eaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet

The Past, Present, and Future of Alliances for Sustainable Capitalism

David Grayson and Jane Nelson
It is estimated that there are more than 110 national and international business-led corporate responsibility coalitions. Given the growing reach and significance of these alliances, there is now a critical need for an informed and balanced analysis of their achievements, their progress, and their potential. In Corporate Responsibility Coalitions, the first book to chronicle the subject, David Grayson and Jane Nelson explore the past, present, and future of these coalitions. They consider the emergence of new models of collective corporate action over the past four decades; the increasing number of these coalitions, their diversity and complexity; and how they network with each other and a broader set of institutions that promote sustainable capitalism. Drawing on their global study, the authors light the way for the future development of these influential alliances. In addition, they provide in-depth profiles of the most strategic, effective, and long-standing coalitions. Corporate Responsibility Coalitions both captures the richness and diversity of a unique social movement and offers an exciting future vision of what more these coalitions could do.

Corporate Responsibility Coalitions

Where Vision and Values Add Value

Sandra Waddock and Andreas Rasche

Building the Responsible Enterprise

The Principle of Public Responsibility

Lee E. Preston and James E. Post

Private Management and Public Policy

This book provides students and practitioners with a practical, yet academically rooted, introduction to the state-of-the-art in sustainability and corporate social responsibility. The book highlights different aspects of corporate responsibility in four parts. Part I discusses the context in which corporate responsibility occurs. Part II looks at the development of vision at the individual and organizational levels, the integration of values into the responsible enterprise, and the ways that these building blocks create added value for a firm. Part III focuses on the roles that stakeholder relationships play in improving performance. The book concludes with a conversation about responsible management in the global village, examining the emerging infrastructure in which enterprise finds itself today. This is a timely book. . . It has the potential to shift the conversation about corporate social responsibility from the periphery into the mainstream where corporate responsibility is the future.
R. Edward Freeman, University of Virginiaand author ofStakeholder Theory

First published in 1975, this landmark work at the intersection of business and society focuses on the management processes that companies use to respond to social issues. The text develops the principle of public responsibility as an alternative to the notion that firms have unlimited accountability. And, it presents one of the first systemsbased approaches to corporate responsibility, providing theoretical support for business involvement in public policy. Arguably, the books major contribution is its broad outline of an alternative theory of the firm in society one that offers the possibility of overcoming traditional public and private dichotomies.
Preston and Posts Private Management and Public Policy is a seminal contribution to the field of the business and society. It should be read by all thoughtful persons who seek a deeper understanding of the interplay between business and its myriad stakeholders. . . . I am so pleased that this classic book is now available to a whole new generation of readers.

More than Money

Five Forms of Capital to Create Wealth and Eliminate Poverty

Paul C. Godfrey

Social Entrepreneurs in America

Edited by Ruth A. Shapiro

The Real Problem Solvers

Grow to Greatness
Edward D. Hess

Smart Growth for Entrepreneurial Businesses

This book presents a novel framework that shows how five types of interrelated capitalinstitutional, human, social, organizational, and physicalenable development and sustainable growth. In addition to a widely applicable model, Godfrey provides principles to guide application. Not just a theoretical examination of poverty, More than Money delivers timely advice to organizations that produce goods and services, implement policies, and create meaningful change on the ground. This book will guide social innovators and entrepreneurs in business, government, and civil society settings as they create a vision, assemble a team of strong partners, and effectively measure social innovation. This is a highly effective analytical tool for addressing problems of poverty and development. More than Money expands the realm of the discussion beyond mere symptoms by effectively focusing on the dynamic root causes of poverty.
Wade Channell, Senior Legal Reform Advisor, U.S. Agency for International Development

The Real Problem Solvers brings together leading entrepreneurs, funders, investors, thinkers, and champions to answer field-leading questions about social entrepreneurship from their own, first-person perspectives. Contributors include figures such as Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus, Ashoka Founder Bill Drayton, Jacqueline Novogratz, Founder of the Acumen Fund, and Sally Osberg, CEO of the Skoll Foundation. The core chapters are anchored by an introduction, a conclusion, and question-and-answers sections that weave together the voices of various contributors. In no other book are so many leaders presented side-by-side. Ingenuity, initiative, and determination are valued traits in any enterprise. Social entrepreneurs apply these talents to solving difficult social problems. This book showcases a number of these commendable people and inspires the reader to think deeply about his or her own contributions to society.
George P. Shultz, Former U.S. Secretary of State

Based on extensive research of more than fifty successful growth companies, Grow to Greatness discusses the top ten growth challenges for entrepreneurial start-ups and how to overcome them. Edward D. Hess dispels the myth that businesses must grow or die. Viewing growth as recurring change, this book lays out a framework for how to approach business developmentand how to manage its risks and pace. Simply put, most entrepreneurial start-ups fail. Those fortunate enough to succeed then face a second, major challenge: how to grow. This book focuses on the key questions an entrepreneur must answer in order to grow a business. The book takes readers through chapters that explore whether the time is right to grow, how to do it, and how to manage the vital reality that growth requires the right leadership, culture, and people. After reading this book, entrepreneurs will have a real understanding of their readiness to grow and place in the growth cycle, as well as a concrete action plan for where to take their businesses next. Grow to Greatness is a must have reference of best practices and lessons learned by others who have successfully taken the growth journey.

Innovation and Technology in the World Economy Series

A Genealogical Approach
Israel Drori, Shmuel Ellis, and Zur Shapira
Tracing the emergence and growth of the Israeli hi-tech sector, the authors provide a new understanding of industry evolution. They reveal how the hi-tech sector built an entrepreneurial culture with a capacity to disseminate intergenerational knowledge of how to found new ventures, as well as an intricate network of support for new firms. Following the evolution of this industry from embryonic to mature, the authors develop a genealogical approach that relies on looking at the sector in the way that one might consider a family tree. The principles of this genealogical analysis enable them to draw attention to the dynamics of industry evolution, while relating the effects of parent companies initial conditions to their respective corporate genealogies and imprinting potential. This book presents extremely ambitious researchwell-executed and thoughtfully analyzed.
M. Diane Burton, Cornell University

The Evolution of a New Industry

Technology Change and the Rise of New Industries

Jeffrey L. Funk
Technology Change and the Rise of New Industries explores why new industries emerge at specific moments in time and in certain countries. Based on analyses of many industries, including those with an electronic and clean energy focus, this book challenges the conventional wisdom that performance dramatically rises following the emergence of a new technology, that costs fall due to increases in cumulative production, and that low-end innovations automatically become disruptive ones. In this important book, Jeff Funk examines what it will take to realize the potential of new technologies for innovating out of the economic challenges that we face. He effectively argues that many theories of innovation are incomplete, outdated, or just plain wrong, and that we must think of disruption and discontinuity as positive, productive forces for innovation.
Anita M. McGahan, University of Toronto and author of How Industries Evolve

The Evolution of San Diegos Innovation Economy

Invention and Reinvention

Mary Lindenstein Walshok and Abraham J. Shragge

In Invention and Reinvention, authors Mary Walshok and Abraham Shragge chronicle San Diegos transformation from a small West Coast settlement to a booming military metropolis and then to a successful innovation hub. This instructive story of a second-tier city that transformed its core economic identity can serve as a rich case and a model for similar regions. Stressing the role that cultural values and social dynamics played in its transition, the authors discern five distinct, recurring factors upon which San Diego capitalized at key junctures in its economic growth. This is an important, pioneering book that contributes to our unique understanding of how one place has achieved what most places want: the capacity to evolve and meet the challenges of a constantly changing global economic environment.

Can Green Sustain Growth?

Serial Innovators

From the Religion to the Reality of Sustainable Prosperity

John Zysman and Mark Huberty

Abbie Griffin, Raymond L. Price, and Bruce A. Vojak

Serial Innovators zeros in on the cutting-edge thinkers who repeatedly create and deliver breakthrough innovations and new products in large, mature organizations. These employees are organizational powerhouses who solve consumer problems and substantially contribute to the financial value to their firms. In this pioneering study, the authors detail who these serial innovators are and how they develop novel products, ranging from salt-free seasonings to improved electronics in companies such as Alberto Culver, HewlettPackard, and Procter & Gamble. Based on interviews with over 50 serial innovators and an even larger pool of their co-workers, managers, and human resources teams, the authors reveal key insights about how to better understand, emulate, enable, support, and manage these individuals for long-term corporate success. Written by three undisputed experts in product innovation and management, this book is extremely well researched and executed. It presents a model that perfectly complements our traditional understanding of product innovation

How Individuals Create and Deliver Breakthrough Innovations in Mature Firms

The Soul of Design

Harnessing the Power of Plot to Create Extraordinary Products

Lee Devin and Robert D. Austin

Green growth has proven to be politically popular, but economically elusive. Can Green Sustain Growth? asks how we can move from theoretical support to implementation, and argues that this leap will require radical experimentation. Insightful and timely, this book brings together eight original, international case studies to consider what we can learn from the implementation of green growth strategies to date. This analysis reveals that coalitions for green experimentation emerge and survive when they link climate solutions to specific problems with near-term benefits that appeal to both environmental and industrial interests. Based on these findings, the volume delivers concrete policy recommendations for the next steps in the necessary shift towards sustainable prosperity. Anyone trying to separate the wheat from the chaff in this emotive discussion needs this book!
Katherine Richardson, Chairman, Danish Commission on Climate Change Policy and Professor, University of Copenhagen

The Soul of Design explores the uncanny power of some products to grab and hold attentionto create desire. To understand what sets a product apart in this way, authors Lee Devin and Robert Austin push past personal taste and individual response to adopt a more conceptual approach. They carefully explore the hypothesis that there is something within a special product that makes itwell, special. They argue that this quality arises from plotthe shape that emerges as a product or service arouses and then fulfills expectations. Drawing on detailed casework, which shows how innovators and makers have successfully brought special products to market, the authors deliver a sensible and clear approach to conceiving of artful goods and services. This book is about lovethe love for products. You dont get love from your customers by asking them what they like. Love is about proposing stories that go beyond expectationsas this book teaches.

The Authentic and Fluent Organization

Janis Forman

Storytelling in Business

Anonymous Agencies, Backstreet Businesses, and Covert Collectives

Craig R. Scott

For more than a decade, awardwinning author Janis Forman has been helping executives to tell stories in service of their organizations. In Storytelling in Business, she teaches readers everywhere how the craft of storytelling can help them to achieve their professional goals. This book provides a researchdriven framework for engaging in organizational storytelling. Original cases from Chevron, FedEx, Phillips, and Schering-Plough show how companies can engage storytelling to make sense of strategy and develop or strengthen culture and brand. To show the reach of storytelling, Forman conducted 140 interviews with professionals ranging from CEOs in small and thriving firms, to corporate communication and digital media experts, to filmmakers. She draws out specific lessons learned, and shows how to employ the road-tested strategies demonstrated by these leaders. Forman has produced a long-overdue and absolutely convincing account of the importance of narrative in directing, inspiring, and shaping organizations.

Rethinking Organizations in the 21st Century

Maximizing the Triple Bottom Line Through Spiritual Leadership

Louis W. Fry and Melissa Sadler Nisiewicz
Maximizing the Triple Bottom Line through Spiritual Leadership draws on the emerging fields of workplace spirituality and spiritual leadership to teach leaders and their constituencies how to develop business models that address issues of ethical leadership, employee well-being, sustainability, and social responsibility without sacrificing profitability, growth, and other metrics of performance excellence. The authors offer real-world examples of for-profit and non-profit organizations that have spiritual leaders and which have implemented organizational spiritual leadership. These cases are based on over ten years of research, supported by the International Institute of Spiritual Leadership, that demonstrates the value of the Spiritual Leadership Balanced Scorecard Business Model presented in the book. The approach that Fry and Nisiewicz have taken is fresh, appropriately reflective, and uniquely grounded. Contrary to soft treatments of this popular theme, their book links spirituality to effective leadership and more specifically and concretely defines spiritual leadership.
Kent Rhodes, Pepperdine University

This book offers a framework for thinking about how organizations and their members communicate identity to relevant audiences. Considering the degree to which organizations reveal themselves, the extent to which members express their identification with the organization, and whether the audience is public or local, author Craig R. Scott describes collectives as residing in regions that range from transparent to shaded, from shadowed to dark. Taking a closer look at groups like Earth First!, the Church of Scientology, Alcoholics Anonymous, the KKK, Skull and Bones, U.S. special missions units, Anonymous, mens bathhouses, various terrorist organizations, and even certain small businesses, this book draws attention to shaded, shadowed, and dark collectives as important organizations in the contemporary landscape. Scotts analysis of organizational visibility, secrecy, and identity extends the horizons of our understanding about the types and behaviors of organizations in todays world. To play on the central theme of the work, I find the book illuminating.

Breakthrough Problem Solving with Action Learning

Concepts and Cases
Michael J. Marquardt and Roland K. Yeo

A Global Analysis

Effective Human Resource Management

Edward E. Lawler III and John W. Boudreau

This elegant method prompts readers to engage with three deceptively simple questions: What? So what? Now what? The first leads to careful observation. The second invites you to thoughtfully consider options and implications. The third ignites effective action. Together, these questions and the tools that support them produce a dynamic and creative dance with uncertainty. The road-tested and scalable steps of adaptive action can be used to devise solutions and improve performance across multiple challenges. Presenting a simple, flexible, and iterative approach that includes inquiry, discovery, shifts, and action, this book provides a blueprint for everyone looking to increase organizational capacity and creative thinking.
Cindy Elkins, Vice President, IT Americas at Genentech

Breakthrough Problem Solving with Action Learning explores why and how action learning groups have been so successful and creative in solving complex problems. The text begins by briefly reviewing the theories that undergird the effectiveness of action learning, philosophically situating readers and pointing them in the direction of related academic works that they may wish to explore. It then turns to stories of how organizations have employed action learning in solving specific, often-encountered business problems. These cases not only serve as real-world models for how action learning can be successfully employed, but also offer inspiration, potential starting points, and guidelines for other businesses that face similar problems. The book concludes with a cross-case analysis that pinpoints the ingredients necessary for breakthrough problem solving via action learning. At last, we have a thinking person's guide to action learning. Michael Marquardt and Roland Yeo have written a much-needed book that goes beyond conventional checklist thinking. . . . This is an ambitious book, well researched, deeply relevant to practitioners and academics.
J.M. Ryan, Senior Fellow, Wharton Executive Education and President and Founder, True North Advisory Group

Effective Human Resource Managementis the Center for Effective Organizations sixth report of a fifteen-year study of HR management in todays organizations. The only long-term analysis of its kind, this book measures how HR is changing, paying particular attention to what creates a successful HR functionone that contributes to a strategic partnership and overall organizational effectiveness. Lawler and Boudreau identify best practices in areas such as the design of the HR organization and HR metrics, pointing out how the HR function can and should change to meet the future demands of a global and dynamic labor market. For the first time, the study features comparisons between U.S.-based firms and companies in China, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, and other European countries. With this new analysis, organizations can measure their organization against a worldwide sample. Are you concerned about the present and the future state of the HR profession and the HR function? This book is a valuable compendium of longitudinal data, and a wake-up call to professional associations, educators, and organizational decision makers everywhere.

Empowerment Evaluation in the Digital Villages

David M. Fetterman

Collaborative Evaluations
Liliana Rodriguez-Campos and Rigoberto Rincones-Gmez

Hewlett-Packards $15 Million Race Toward Social Justice

Step-by-Step, Second Edition

This book analyzes a $15 million community change initiative designed to bridge the digital divide in East Palo Alto, East Baltimore, and San Diego. Involving a partnership between Hewlett-Packard, Stanford University, and three ethnically diverse communities, this initiative enabled its constituencies to build their own technology-oriented businesses, improve their education systems, and improve their economic health. While examining this largescale, multi-site case, Fetterman highlights the potential for empowerment evaluation to build local capacity and sustain improvements within communities. He provides deep insights into key steps in empowerment evaluation by exploring the way that each of these phases took place in the digital villages. This book makes a significant contribution to the empowerment evaluation literature. It provides detailed cases of empowerment evaluation in action that will help practitioners to understand implementation issues, challenges, and the benefits of using this evaluative approach.
Stewart I. Donaldson, Claremont Graduate University

The authors present their Model for Collaborative Evaluations (MCE) with its six major components: identify the situation, clarify the expectations, establish a collective commitment, ensure open communication, encourage effective practices, and follow specific guidelines. Fully updated to reflect the stateof-the-art in the field, each core chapter addresses one component of the model, providing step-bystep guidance, as well as helpful tips for successful application. To further demonstrate the utility of the MCE, this new edition includes recurring vignettes about several evaluators and clients, illustrating frequent questions and specific challenges that arise when evaluators take a collaborative approach. This book is the best way to get that essential understanding of collaborative evaluation. Its well-organized, clearly written, interesting, and comprehensivereally earning the title of a handbook.

Augier and March trace the origins of this quiet revolution and show how it shaped discussions about management education, leading to a shift in that weakened the place of business cases and experiential knowledge and strengthened support for a concept of professionalism that applied to management.

After exploring the sociology and organization of evaluation in this landmark work, Dahler-Larsen concludes by discussing issues that are critical for the future of evaluationas a discipline and a societal norm.
