Das klassische Nachhaltigkeitsverständnis ist nicht mehr ausreichend, um den Krisen unserer Zeit entgegenzuwirken. Nur mit ganzheitlichem Denken können Unternehmen einen positiven Beitrag leisten und sozio-ökologische Systeme wiederherstellen. Die praktische Umsetzung von regenerativen Ansätzen im Geschäftskontext stellt Unternehmen jedoch vor Herausforderungen. Dieses Buch beleuchtet wichtige Transformationsfaktoren und Prozessschritte, basierend auf Interviews mit Praktikern.
