Modern management for the fulfilment of sustainable development goals requires support provided by controlling, especially 'green controlling', whose core focus is on environmental and social issues. This book presents controlling within the concept of sustainable development as an element contributing to the increase of enterprise value. The authors of this monograph have explored topics in connection with environmental and social determinants, at the same time presenting their financial consequences for company business. As a result, the publication demonstrates, in the theoretical dimension, that activities undertaken in an organized and coordinated fashion with a view of sustainable development goals may and should be regarded in connection with finance.
This book exemplifies activities undertaken by selected enterprises towards resolving significant problems related to green controlling and finance. It presents how the analysed enterprises employ (or may employ) green controlling for coordination of initiatives in environmental and social dimensions. The authors focused primarily on the financial angle of the solutions regarding environmental and social aspects within the scope of corporate strategy, value creation, financial planning, budgeting, indicator analysis, reporting, cost management, investment appraisal, risk analysis and estimation of capital cost. The analyses performed enabled the researchers to prove that elements of green controlling connected with finance are present in the discussed enterprises and may serve as examples of good practices for other business entities striving to increase enterprise value in the long run.
This collection of expert articles highlights the standards and practices concerning sustainability reporting among companies in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). Due to the growing interest in corporate social responsibility issues, sustainability reporting has become increasingly common among businesses that claim to adhere to certain social, environmental and economic standards. While it can be observed that sustainability reporting is widely practiced in Western and Northern European countries, only few studies have been conducted on this topic in the CEE region. Drawing on a major empirical study involving researchers from 10 different CEE countries, this book addresses the status quo of sustainability reporting, outlines future prospects and provides essential recommendations for practitioners.
Niniejsza monografia jest efektem obrad podczas międzynarodowej konferencji naukowej poświęconej tematyce public relations w naukach ekonomicznych. Idea konferencji dotyczącej ekonomii informacji powstała pod koniec XX wieku w Katedrze Publicystyki Ekonomicznej i Public Relations Akademii Ekonomicznej w Poznaniu (a obecnego Uniwersytetu Ekonomicznego w Poznaniu). Było to miejsce, gdzie spotykali się zarówno teoretycy reprezentujący różne ośrodki badawcze z Polski jak i zza granicy. Głównym pomysłodawcą konferencji był Prof. Ryszard Ławniczak, który przez wiele lat rozwijał koncepcję transformacyjnego PR. Koncepcja transformacyjnego public relations jest obecnie mocna osadzona w literaturze międzynarodowej i wskazuje na istotną rolę działań informacyjnych w gospodarce, w szczególności w okresie zmian systemowych.
