Sustainability is a moral imperative and a competitive advantage. Consumers, clients, and top recruits alike prefer environmentally responsible organizations.
But since sustainability is a relatively new field, it’s not yet an integral part of the college curriculum or of traditional leadership training programs. Information on best practices is scattered—but Greenleaf Publishing has brought it all together.
Their DōShorts eCollections, Sustainable Organization Library (SOL), and Greenleaf Online Library (GOL) disseminate research and best practices that are environmentally sound, ethically grounded, and socially just. These collections provide:
Instant access to leading thinkers on sustainability
Case studies on best practice from international organizations
Evidence-based research to guide and inspire forward-looking leaders in every industry
✓ DRM-free files that can be downloaded and printed
✓Unrestricted access for your entire organization
✓ No download limits or simultaneous user limits
✓ Individually searchable and downloadable articles
✓ Accessible on eReaders, smartphones, and tablets, as well as desktops and laptops
✓ Regularly updated with new content
✓ Free MARC Records
Professionals need short and digestible sustainability solutions—the best available insights and experience in a format that is succinct, practical, and inspiring. DōShorts address one sustainability challenge at a time and can be read in 90 minutes. These short, practical books are ideal for strategy development, internal training, e-learning, and executive education.
“These 90-minute business reads will help you build environmental thinking into your core business strategy. It’s what smart companies are doing now and what we should be preparing all future executives to do.”
—Dan Esty, Professor of Environmental Law and Policy, Yale Law School, and author of Green to Gold
