This book addresses the subject of sustainable business development and necessary change. It is not intended to contribute to the wider environmental debate but, instead, it is intended for use by corporate management, Boards of Directors, their advisors and financial sector players, such as investors, asset managers and analysts, and the accountancy profession, in discussions regarding what must be done, and how such change can be managed. The book´s aim is to help to promote a greater awareness, knowledge and belief in this subject in order to guide and direct management in identifying a vision that is not short-term, but long-term; a vision of sustainable business development.

The book addresses the “How”, not the “Why”, of sustainable development for management, boards, accountants, analysts and investors interested in value growth.

The author is Lars-Olle Larsson, a well-known expert within sustainable business development. Lars-Olle´s many years of involvement and practical work with these issues in Sweden and Europe, his assignments in a number of large organizations and companies, and his experience from previous publications, give him a unique position in this field.
