Exploring the often-overlooked role of accounting in addressing ecological, social, and biodiversity challenges, this book argues that accounting standards fundamentally shape profit calculations and investment decisions.

This roadmap drives the everyday activity of the company as well as any change it makes both internally and externally. And it is what drives projects. In fact, it is arguable that success in business is almost wholly reliant on an ability to implement change effectively - whether it is a computer system that gives you the edge on your competitor, bringing a new product to market, adopting new ways of working, or completely redefining the approach your company takes.
