Sommario/riassunto |
|
A compilation of prestigious contributions from eminent thinkers in the field, this book focuses on the topic of socially responsible outsourcing (SRO). Building on the previous title in this series, Socially Responsible Outsourcing develops the concept of 'Impact Sourcing' which has gained increased commercial and academic interest over the past four years, and discusses how and why clients and providers have embraced social responsibility. Socially Responsible Outsourcing includes research frameworks, rich case studies, and an SRO agenda for the future. |
