Recenzii

“We must end teaching, researching, and legitimizing business-as-usual practices that are rapidly destroying the planet’s capacity to support all species. These authors tell exciting stories that inspire business schools around the world to break away from those practices to focus on activism, researching, and teaching to create a sustainable/flourishing/regenerating world. These powerful stories will inspire many to follow in their footsteps, and to share our own transformation stories.”  
James A. F. Stoner, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, Fordham University  
“If we are ever to overthrow the yoke of shareholder primacy, we must creatively destroy business education as we know it.  This important new book provides a roadmap and narrative for making that happen.”  
Stuart Hart, Ph.D., Professor, University of Vermont and author of Beyond Shareholder Primacy  
 
"We all agree that business education needs to be transformed if we are to transition towards a sustainable political economy but how exactly is this to be done? Transforming Business Education for a Sustainable Future: Stories from Pioneers will be an invaluable resource for anyone who is currently wrestling with this question."  
Lee Matthews, Ph.D., Lecturer in Business and Society, University of Nottingham  
 
"This book provides a deep and sincere insight into meaningful and useful practices regarding sustainability in education. The simple writing of each chapter encourages the reader to realize and encourage aspects of sustainability in work and daily life."  
Respati Wulandari, Ph.D., Associate Professor, BINUS Business School, Bina Nusantara University, Indonesia  
 
"What we are teaching in business schools today is irrelevant. Many organizations are working against an urgent timeline to change business and business education for human survival. This book takes us beyond conversations about what might be done or should be done. It offers stories from pioneers who are in action. No one has all the answers but these pioneers are on the front lines of figuring out business for a finer future."  
Hunter Lovins, JD., President and Founder of Natural Capitalism Solutions (NCS), founding professor of the MBA in Sustainability at Bard College  
 
"I was deeply inspired as I read the 16 chapters of this urgently needed book which is filled with well documented, positive, 'sustainability promoting,' examples of changes that have been and are being made in business schools’ courses and curricula. As an educator since 1965, I strongly endorse this book for educators, students, and business school policy makers, globally."   
Donald Huisingh, Professor and Editor-in-Chief, Emeritus, Journal of Cleaner Production  
 
“Education is arguably the most immediate way to drive socio-ecological change and have an impact in business/management. This book is a fantastic collection of hands-on stories from those committed to transforming business education and making a difference. It provides much-needed resources and practical insights and I am sure it will become a reference in the field."  
Anne Touboulic, Ph.D., Chair of the Social and Environmental Responsibility Group, Nottingham University Business School 
"The world is facing unprecedented challenges, and it is essential that our future business leaders are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and mindset necessary to navigate and address these complex issues. This book serves as a guiding light, providing a collection of success stories from pioneers who have developed innovative programs, courses, and systems that are already transforming the way business education is conducted to cope with our global sustainability challenges.”
Rupert Baumgartner, PhD, Professor of Sustainability Management, University of Graz, Austria
