Business Sustainability Research -- Translations for Practice

  • 1.  Business Sustainability Research -- Translations for Practice

    Posted 09-17-2009 15:34
    We have recently launched a new website for the Network for Business Sustainability. It has a new url (nbs.net), a shorter name (dropped 'Research'), a new logo, and a new look. Most importantly, though, we are translating research for practitioners - what we call 'Research Insights'.  You'll notice that we have focused our attention on some major topics (e.g. community engagement, consumerism, climate change, and valuation metrics), which were chosen by a diverse group of practitioners (business managers, policy makers, and NGOs).

    I'm writing to you for 3 reasons:
    1. to inform you of this resource;
    2. to encourage your suggestions for papers that should be developed into Research Insights;
    3. to solicit interest from doctoral students who might be interested in helping to translate research into Research Insights.

    If you would like to follow up, please email info@nbs.net. You can also follow us on Facebook <http://go.to/nbsnet>  and Twitter <http://twitter.com/nbsnet>.
