Watson -- Foreword -- Part I: Foundationss and Directions -- Part II: Tools and Methods -- Part III: Cases and Examples.Green Business Process Management – Towards the Sustainable Enterprise" consolidates the global state-of-the-art knowledge about how business processes can be managed and improved in light of sustainability objectives. Business organizations, a dominant part of our society, have always been a major contributor to the degradation of our natural environment, through the resource consumption, greenhouse emissions, and wastage production associated with their business processes. In order to lessen their impact on the natural environment, organizations must design and implement environmentally sustainable business processes. Finding solutions to this organizational design problem is the key challenge of Green Business Process Management. This book discusses the emerging challenges of designing “green” business processes, presents tools and methods that organizations can use in order to design and implement environmentally sustainable processes, and provides insights from cases where organizations successfully engaged in more sustainable business practices. The book is of relevance to both practitioners and academics who are interested in understanding, designing, and implementing “green” business processes. It also constitutes a valuable resource for students and lecturers in the fields of information systems, management, and sustainable development.Sustainable developmentEconomic developmentEnvironmental aspectsSocial responsibility of businessIndustrial managementEnvironmental aspectsSustainable development.Economic developmentEnvironmental aspects.Social responsibility of business.Industrial managementEnvironmental aspects.005.7330333.7650330sdnbBrocke Jan vom1064042Seidel Stefan1586297Recker Jan1065341MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816045603321Green business process managemen4204677UNINA
