Description:

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are no longer an option for a firm’s sustainability. Firms are in need to gear up their practices, strategies, values, and even culture to achieve the SDGs, not only for the firm’s benefit but also for all the stakeholders, now and in the future. SDGs is a holistic movement that covers a myriad of perspectives. There are 17 movements of SDGs to ensure that the world that we currently live in is also enjoyed by  the future generations. In addition, SDGs also aim for the firms to prosper and progress as best as they can be. In this sense, firms that are neglecting the SDGs or sustainability context in their business, management, strategy, and decision-making may divert from the fundamentals of why a business is being set-up, that is, to provide values to the user/end customer. The grand concept of SDGs is all-inclusive, hence, to achieve it is neither an overnight achievement or silo-heroic efforts. SDGs is a universal notion but a multidimensional, complex business objective, requiring a concerted effort in different contexts and knowledge disciplines. The uniqueness of this book is relative to the existing literature in the market because its diverse content does not put a limitation on the specific limits and knowledge framework. This edited book comprises multidiscipline business perspectives that encompass the SDGs notions. The chapters in this book explores the SDGs application on business components such as competitive advantages, consumerism, manufacturing, supply chain management, innovation, entrepreneurship, and finance.
