Business
activities impact the environment, no matter the sector or
country a company is operating in. Due to increasing governmental,
supply-chain or stakeholder pressure, the environmental impact
of a company will increasingly affect the (financial) performance
of the business.
To
get a deeper understanding on how these trends might affect
a business, download
the presentation (ca. 1 MB pdf-file) on current and future
trends in the area of environmental management. Thus
regardless the size of a company, its location or annual financial
return, the integration of environmental considerations into
the daily decision making will be more and more important.
The
Environmental Management Navigator addresses these needs.
It is developed for the specific demands of small- and medium
sized enterprises in developing countries and countries in
transition. It serves as a guide and decision support concept
for corporate decision-makers to cope with the growing demand
and expectations in the field of environmental management.
The Navigator aims to
- empower
corporations with an understanding of the beneficial impact
environmental management tools do have on the bottom line;
- present
the basic knowledge about those tools in a comprehensive
and understandable fashion;
- enables
corporate decision-makers for an appropriate application
of tools.
Eight
of the most important environmental management tools available
today are presented in a systematic fashion along the eight
steps of the "Knowledge Wheel". Each of the steps will
help to apply the tools specifically to a company´s
business environment.
Our toolbox
provides more information about every single tool.
