This book offers a qualitative and transformative approach, spread across three different manufacturing industries, towards a circular transition.

The EVA Challenge

Economic Value Added - das EVA-Konzept - wurde von der Beratungsfirma Stern Stewart & Co. entwickelt. Es ist ein effektiver Maßstab zur Messung der finanziellen Performance eines Unternehmens und ist eng mit dem Shareholder-Value-Ansatz verbunden.
