Becoming a Sustainable Organization: A Project and Portfolio Management Approach

Kris' book on sustainable strategy is done and in at the publisher. We are expecting a second quarter 2016 book launch!

Sustainable strategy creates financial value while preserving natural and social capital. Increasingly, organizations are adopting sustainability as part of business strategy; but implementing the strategy remains a challenge creating a gap between strategy and impact. Effecting transformational change requires incorporating sustainability into organizational policies, processes, and people. Project management professionals and HR professionals are often overlooked but valuable organizational resources to drive sustainable transformation. The book lays out a framework to improve sustainability integrations. It includes case studies, lessons learned, best practices, and tools and templates to facilitate transforming into a sustainable organization.

We will let you know when the book launch party is being held. We may even be breaking out some special wines from Morris' wine cellar to celebrate!!!!
