Book Description
This book introduces readers to the main types of corporate sustainability practices. The first section examines both the ratings provided by international agencies and the various ESG (Environmental, Social and Government) indexes existing at 2021. In turn, the second part empirically investigates the relationship between the level of corporate sustainability and corporate financial performance among the large companies listed on the Milan Exchange FTSE-MIB 40 index for 2015-2019. The book offers a comprehensive overview of current sustainability concepts and practices and illustrates how various companies are seeking to integrate them in their competitive strategy. Further, it fills a gap in the extant literature by analysing the origins, historical evolution and structure of the main rating agencies and ESG indexes. In addition, the empirical analysis of corporate sustainability’s impact on companies’ financial performance reveals the importance of collegial leadership – a commonly found feature of Italian family businesses that has not been considered in previous studies – as a moderating factor for reconciling sustainability initiatives and performance at family-run firms.

Book Description
The Business of Sustainability is a core resource for policy makers, members of the development community, entrepreneurs, and corporate executives, as well as business and economics students and their professors. It contains rich analysis of how sustainability is being factored into industries across the globe, with enlightening case studies of businesses serving as agents of change. Contributing authors provide a groundbreaking body of research-based knowledge. They explain that the concept of sustainability is being re-framed to be positive about business instead of being tied to the old notion of a trade-off between business and society (that is, if business wins, society and the environment must lose), and they explore how economic development can contribute to building our common future.

Book Description
L’accelerazione della regolamentazione del reporting di sostenibilità si inserisce in un contesto economico-sociale decisamente turbolento. Le imprese, faticosamente in ripresa dopo un forte calo della domanda dopo la pandemia, si trovano ora a dover affrontare una crisi energetica senza precedenti, assistendo ad una impennata dei costi dell’energia e delle materie prime nonché ad un significativo aumento dell’inflazione. In questo scenario geo-politico diventa ancora più urgente adottare strategie d’impresa di medio-lungo periodo basate sul paradigma “ESG”. La Guida del Sole 24 Ore mette a disposizione strumenti conoscitivi sul panorama normativo e i trend in atto, tenendo conto della peculiarità di alcuni settori, tra i quali il mondo finanziario e assicurativo, e fornendo strumenti tecnici e casi rappresentativi del mercato, anche tenendo conto del tessuto imprenditoriale che vede una presenza significativa di piccole e medie imprese

Book Description
Negli ultimi anni si è diffusa una crescente consapevolezza degli impatti, positivi e negativi, che l’attività aziendale può generare su ambiente e società. Questo ha portato a un progressivo ripensamento dei modelli tradizionali di produzione e consumo a favore di modelli con un minor impatto socio-ambientale. Si sta quindi assistendo a una trasformazione delle aziende che sono chiamate a ripensare la loro governance, strategia, modelli di business e processi in ottica di ottimizzazione congiunta degli aspetti economici, sociali e ambientali. Il presente volume offre una visione complessiva e organica sul tema della sostenibilità aziendale. In dettaglio, il volume intende fornire i fondamentali concetti, metodi e strumenti caratterizzanti la gestione sostenibile di un’azienda, facendo riferimento ai principali ambiti del management quali il marketing, la finanza, l’organizzazione, l’accounting, ecc. Inoltre, nel volume viene data evidenza della prospettiva e del ruolo dei vari stakeholder costituenti il c.d. “ecosistema” aziendale. In relazione agli obiettivi indicati, la trattazione si sviluppa in due parti idealmente complementari: nella prima parte si illustrano i concetti fondamentali della sostenibilità aziendale mentre nella seconda parte si approfondiscono aspetti legati ai processi, ai metodi e agli strumenti.

Book Description
This edited volume lays the groundwork for Social Data Science, addressing epistemological issues, methods, technologies, software and applications of data science in the social sciences. It presents data science techniques for the collection, analysis and use of both online and offline new (big) data in social research and related applications. Among others, the individual contributions cover topics like social media, learning analytics, clustering, statistical literacy, recurrence analysis and network analysis. Data science is a multidisciplinary approach based mainly on the methods of statistics and computer science, and its aim is to develop appropriate methodologies for forecasting and decision-making in response to an increasingly complex reality often characterized by large amounts of data (big data) of various types (numeric, ordinal and nominal variables, symbolic data, texts, images, data streams, multi-way data, social networks etc.) and from diverse sources. This book presents selected papers from the international conference on Data Science & Social Research, held in Naples, Italy in February 2016, and will appeal to researchers in the social sciences working in academia as well as in statistical institutes and offices.

Questo è in sintesi il paradigma dello sviluppo sostenibile, che chiama in causa non solo le aziende ma anche i consumatori e lo Stato. La sfida sarà vinta solo se il cambiamento culturale sarà preso in carico da tutti.
