Sustainability at Work is a compelling guide for everyone who wants to have both a successful career and a career that makes a positive difference in society.
Containing career advice of great value to students of sustainability, and explaining how they can apply their knowledge to their future careers, its appeal extends well beyond the classroom. Sustainability at Work includes an easy-to-follow framework that anyone wondering how they can make a sustainable difference in the workplace can apply.
Professionals from a variety of backgrounds and territories explain how they brought a sustainability approach to various sectors: agriculture, health care, business, economics, and financial services, education and research, law and policy, science and technology, and entertainment and media.
Through inspiring narratives and a structured framework, Sustainability at Work illustrates how sustainability can be incorporated into every imaginable career to impact the quadruple bottom line: environment, economy, society, and future generations.
Marilyn Waite’s vision is a world where sustainability values of social cohesion, environmental consciousness, intergenerational equity, and economic health drive decision-making and business practices. A speaker and author, she has addressed audiences in Africa, Europe, Asia, and North and Central America on sustainability in careers, education, textiles, climate change, water, and energy. Marilyn holds a Master’s degree with distinction in Engineering for Sustainable Development from the University of Cambridge, UK, and a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering (magna cum laude) from Princeton University, USA.
