What is a responsible business? Common wisdom is that it's one that sacrifices profit for social outcomes. But while it's crucial for companies to serve society they also have a duty to generate profit for investors - savers retirees and pension funds. Based on the highest - quality evidence and real - life examples spanning industries and countries Alex Edmans shows that it's not an either - or choice - companies can create both profit and social value. The most successful companies don't target profit directly but are driven by purpose - the desire to serve a societal need and contribute to human betterment. The book explains how to embed purpose into practice so that it's more than just a mission statement and discusses the critical role of working collaboratively with a company's investors employees and customers. Rigorous research also uncovers surprising results on how executive pay shareholder activism and share buybacks can be used for the common good.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Grow The Pie How Great Companies Deliver Both Purpose And Profit\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Edmans Alex (London Business School)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781108494854\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 382 Pages, Worked Examples Or Exercises; 1 Tables, Black And White; 19 Line Drawings, Black And Whit\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 4\/16\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Corporate Governance","brand":"Edmans Alex (London Business School)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49612838011185,"sku":"IN-G-9781108494854","price":27.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781108494854.jpg?v=1724606006","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781108494854-grow-the-pie-how-great-companies-deliver-both-purpose-and-profit","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
