Sustainable Management and Leadership Practices for Enhancing Business Performance

Abstract

Over the years, the growing number of social, economic, and environmental issues have challenged the corporate’s functioning, thus becoming imperative for businesses to pay attention to their performance. Significantly, in addressing the rising global challenges today, sustainable management and leadership practices have gained exceptional importance in the eyes of the multilateral parties and stakeholders. Sustainable management and leadership are prime determinants of enhanced business performance. Together, they foster the organization's operational excellence, productivity, and efficiency. In particular, they develop an interrelated set of competencies, systems, and models that influence the organization's processes, activities, and functions, thereby increasing business performance. However, despite the increasing significance of sustainable management and leadership, today, businesses are still using traditional practices to increase their business performance. Unfortunately, as a result, institutions are still falling apart in improving the firms’ business performance. Hence, to address the increasing concern, this call for paper encourages organizations to adopt these approaches to ensure business performance.
