​" The Sustainable Enterprise Fieldbook is a collection of deep context and practical tools to help every reader equip their organization for the sustainable future. The authors have crafted a rich read with hundreds of case studies and perspectives ranging from Pope Francis to the animal kingdom to Mark Twain.  There are countless books about the future of sustainable business, but none stitch together the historical wisdom, activation methods and story-telling like The Sustainable Enterprise Fieldbook.” 

- DAVE  STANGIS
 CHIEF SUSTAINABILITY OFFICER, CAMPBELL SOUP COMPANY

The Sustainable Enterprise Fieldbook is a helpful guide for those seeking to add their mark on the larger sustainability movement, and can help ensure that companies and organizations act as positive agents toward this future.”

"Sustainability  management  is  a  core  competency  and  a  competitive  advantage.  Most  managers  must  overcome  barriers  to  change,  while  building  a  culture  of  sustainability.  Dr.  Wirtenberg,  Linda  M.  Kelley,  David  Lipsky  and  William  G.  Russell  have  created  an  excellent  guide  with  change  management  tactics  that  will  ensure  performance  is  optimized.  This  book  will  prepare  you  to  become  certified  in  the  profession  as  a  Sustainability  Management  Certified  Professional,  SMCP.”

"As  we  move  into  the  2020’s—  facing  an  array  of  critical  social  and  environmental  challenges--no  task  has  more  urgency  then  the  building  of  sustainable  enterprise.  The  updated  Fieldbook  retains  the  practical  focus  of  the  first  edition,  while  also  helping  practitioners  understand  the  holistic  sustainability  advantage  that  arises  across  the  enterprise,  from  mission-aligned  strategy  to  employee  engagement  to  metrics.  The  Fieldbook  is  a  terrific  practical  guide  for  a  sustainability  transition.”

"This  important  update  of  the  Sustainable  Enterprise  Fieldbook  offers  so  much  valuable  and  practical  guidance  for  any  manager  to  help  his  or  her  company  become  a  sustainability  leader.    With  its  particular  emphasis  on  people,  their  mental  models,  the  development  of  new  behaviors  and  expectations,  and  the  metrics  and  feedback  by  which  progress  can  be  evaluated,  this  book  goes  to  the  core  of  how  to  motivate  change  in  any  organization  and  help  us  strive  for,  in  the  words  of  John  Ehrenfeld,  a  flourishing  and  sustainable  world..”
ANDREW J. HOFFMAN
HOLCIM (US) PROFESSOR OF SUSTAINABLE ENTERPRISE, ROSS SCHOOL OF BUSINESS/SEAS, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN

​"Authors’  holistic  representation  of  sustainable  globalization  using  a  six-lens  framework  is  an  incredibly  useful  addition  to  the  decision-making  toolkit  of  business  leaders  and  managers  driving  strategic  initiatives  in  multinational  firms.  It  is  an  especially  valuable  resource  for  managers  seeking  to  design  and  execute  global  strategies  that  are  aligned  with  sustainable  objectives.  This  well-researched  book  not  only  draws  readers’  attention  toward  numerous  environmental  and  social  problems  currently  facing  humanity,  using  up  to  date  numbers  and  figures,  but  also  provides  insights  and  detailed  examples  of  specific  projects  undertaken  by  multinational  firms  that  have  sought  to  address  a  few  of  these  problems  as  part  of  their  sustainability  initiatives.  This  book  urges  leaders  to  place  sustainability  at  the  core  of  their  business  strategy.  To  this  end,  it  provides  conceptual  tools  and  real-world  examples  to  help  business  leaders  find  their  way  to  sustainable  profits...”

"The  Sustainable  Enterprise  Fieldbook:  Building  New  Bridges  is  an  excellent  resource  for  students  just  learning  the  ropes  of  organizational  sustainability.  It  paints  a  clear  picture  of  the  current  state  of  sustainable  enterprise,  where  the  gaps  are,  and  what  needs  to  be  done  by  both  individuals  and  organizations  in  order  to  cross  the  bridge  to  achieve  true  sustainability.  In  addition  to  theories  and  examples,  this  book  provides  the  tools  needed  for  people  –  at  all  levels  of  an  organization  –  to  take  action  to  promote  purposeful,  sustainable  enterprise,  making  it  a  valuable  resource  for  both  sustainability  newcomers  and  seasoned  experts  alike."

"The  next  time  I  teach  my  “Sustainable  Business”  course,  I  will  certainly  be  using  The  Sustainable  Enterprise  Fieldbook  as  the  primary  text.    Having  reviewed  the  advance  copy  of  the  fully  revised  and  updated  Second  Edition,  I  am  aware  of  no  better  resource  for  faculty  and  students  than  this  text.  The  breadth  of  topics  covered  ensures  an  interdisciplinary  approach  to  sustainable  business  practices  with  an  emphasis  on  Human  Capital,  and  the  depth  of  each  of  the  chapters,  with  numerous  case  studies,  will  facilitate  engaged  class  discussion.    And  do  not  forget  the  significant  bonus  of  an  accessible  online  platform  developed  specifically  for  The  Sustainable  Enterprise  Fieldbook.    In  particular,  the  chapters  that  discuss  change  management  and  sustainability  metrics  are  especially  good  on  important  topics  that  are  all  too  frequently  glossed  over.    The  opening  chapter,  providing  an  overview  of  progress  in  the  field  since  the  First  Edition,  is  not  only  useful  for  providing  detailed  context,  it  also  demonstrates  that  the  team  of  author-editors  have  their  fingers  on  the  pulse  of  sustainable  enterprise."
