Sustainable Management of Japanese Entrepreneurs in Pre-War Period from the Perspective of SDGs and ESG

Autor Masaatsu Takehara, Naoya Hasegawa
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 dec 2020
This book features 13 Japanese entrepreneurs who made a significant contribution to the development of society from 1868, when modernization in Japan began, to the 1950s, after World War II. They worked on solving social issues at the time through their businesses and succeeded in creating social value by solving social issues and economic value through the development of their businesses. 
The business philosophies they practiced have been passed on to their successors, and the companies they founded are now providing value to consumers around the world. Those 13 entrepreneurs anticipated the integration of solving social issues into corporate management, which modern companies are expected to realize under the umbrella of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by United Nations in 2015. Their trajectories provide a wealth of practical knowledge necessary to survive in a changing society and provide many valuable lessons for modern companies and their managers.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

“This volume is an important contribution to the field of corporate social responsibility. It confirms that CSR is not a solely a Western concept, but one which has been embedded in Japanese business culture for over a century. By linking socially-responsible actions to various schools of thought, this book not only provides an historical basis for Japanese CSR, but also points the way to re-discovering these principles in a modern world.”
Dr. Lori Forman, Professor and Development Advisor, and former Visiting Professor at Keio University
