From interviews with SME leaders the author suggests a widespread lack of conviction of the importance of the environment, and insistence that short-term profitability is the main focus. However, things are changing now and there is more pressure on businesses to take an interest in these issues; yet, there is a lack of clarity about the attributes (characteristics, personality, competencies, qualities, or character) of leaders who can runan SME and who have a predisposition to focus on environmental and resource sustainability. 530 Also available in print. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 538 System requirements: Adobe Acrobat reader. 561 Purchased with the Phippen Library Fund. 588 Description based on PDF viewed 05/11/2020. 650 0 Sustainability|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2009000375|zMiddle East.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85090501-781 650 0 Leadership|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85075480|zMiddle East.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85090501-781 650 0 Business enterprises|xEnvironmental aspects|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009117984|zMiddle East. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090501-781 650 0 Small business|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123568|xEnvironmental aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005383|zMiddle East.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090501-781 650 7 Sustainability.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1747391 650 7 Leadership.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/994701 650 7 Business enterprises|xEnvironmental aspects.|2fast|0https: //id.worldcat.org/fast/842556 650 7 Small business|xEnvironmental aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1121262 650 7 Small business.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1121223 651 7 Middle East.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1241586 653 Leadership. 653 SMEs. 653 Sustainable development. 653 Environment. 653 Sustainability leaders. 653 SME leaders. 655 0 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9781951527853 830 0 Environmental and social sustainability for business advantage collection.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2015159756|x2327-3348 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// portal.igpublish.com/iglibrary/search/BEPB0000980.html |zOnline ebook via BEP.
