Summary:

Sustainability is becoming a business megatrend. The issue of this book is to be seen in the fact that controlling departments are hardly involved in sustainability topics and do not contribute to corporate responsibility.

The objective of this book is the conceptual development of a responsible controlling framework toward decision making which is based on an ethical fundament in order to make a company a responsible business.
