Karl Weber & Andrew Savitz 
Talent, Transformation, and the Triple Bottom Line [PDF ebook] 
How Companies Can Leverage Human Resources to Achieve Sustainable Growth

HR Professional’s guide to creating a strategically sustainable
organization

Employees are central to creating sustainable organizations, yet
they are left on the sidelines in most sustainability initiatives
along with the HR professionals who should be helping to engage and
energize them. This book shows business leaders and HR
professionals how to: motivate employees to create economic,
environmental and social value; facilitate necessary culture,
strategic and organizational change; embed sustainability into the
employee lifecycle; and strengthen existing capabilities and
develop new ones necessary to support the transformation to
sustainability.

Talent, Transformation, and the Triple Bottom Line also
demonstrates how leading companies are using sustainability to
strengthen core HR functions: to win the war for talent, to
motivate and empower employees, to increase productivity, and to
enliven traditional HR-related efforts such as diversity, health
and wellness, community involvement and volunteerism. In
combination, these powerful benefits can help drive business
growth, performance, and results.

* The book offers strategies, policies, tools and specific action
steps that business leaders and HR professionals can use to get
into the sustainability game or enhance their efforts
dramatically

* Andrew Savitz is an expert in sustainability and has worked
extensively with many organizations on sustainability strategy and
implementation; he and Karl Weber wrote The Triple Bottom
Line, one of the most successful books in the field

* Published in partnership with SHRM and with the cooperation of
the World Business Council for Sustainable Development

* Forward by Edward Lawler III

This book fills a gaping hole in both the HR and sustainability
literature by educating HR professionals about sustainability,
sustainability professionals about HR, and business leaders about
how to marry the two to accelerate progress on both fronts.
