The Sustainable Organization. A paradigm for a fairer society. Miguel Reynolds Brandao & Nadia Morais
The Sustainable Organization. A paradigm for a fairer society. Miguel Reynolds Brandao & Nadia Morais. 2015. A very thought provoking rethink on how organizations could change to a more sustainable model. I have reviewed the background research for the 99% movement , Alex Ohanians story how youth can create the future and Bruce Thorntons belief in the EUs slow inevitable decline. all here in this blog.
Brandao has taken a more analytic view of organizational structure, reward systems and their impact on the world order. He details the world wide executive compensation inequity ( absent somehow for Sweden and Norway) . He posits a new index the SORG , that powerfully communicates the impact of an organization on the world/community which is well beyond P&L statements and GDP. This could be like catnip to Millenials.
This is a useful viewpoint, one that is worthwhile for academics to pursue further. Plus I suggest you read it to stimulate your thoughts and responses. I can see this as worthy of a TED talk, and also at Davos. The book may be one that Bill Gates would recommend as it fits with his recent recommendations.
