520 3  As organizations tackle global challenges, the faces of 
       our businesses and our economic system are changing to 
       consider the interests of all stakeholders rather than 
       just shareholders. This book provides a step-by-step 
       approach for organizations to reap benefits from a more 
       sustainable approach. It begins with a brief history of 
       the concept of sustainability as it applies to both 
       performance and reporting. Implementing sustainability in 
       an organization begins with the development of policies 
       which are consistent with the expectations of its stake- 
       holders. An organization's active participation in multi-
       stakeholder initiatives helps to align the policies with 
       societal trends. Once the policies are developed, a 
       management system is crucial to ensure congruence of 
       policies with actual performance. Then, periodic reporting
       of performance based on well-recognized standards aids 
       stakeholders in assessing an organization's performance. 
       It also helps stakeholders to determine if performance 
       aligns with their expectations. Both internal and external
       assurances build stakeholder trust in the organization's 
       performance and reporting. Finally, the book concludes 
       with a reflection on key messages and potential future 
       actions for continuous improvement.
