Business Management for a Sustainable World

Abstract

The Business Management Group develops knowledge and increases awareness of economically, socially and ecologically sustainable operations and systems in the green sector. We engage with entrepreneurship, leadership and governance across agriculture, forestry and horticulture as well as urban and rural landscapes.

Research in the subject area aims to help solve complex problems linked to significant global challenges. Qualitative and quantitative research methods are used to investigate problems and issues, contributing to positive and sustainable economic, social and ecological development.

The subject area aims to act as an agent of change for the green sector through active collaboration with networks and actors, and our research is characterised by an interdisciplinary approach, systems thinking and knowledge implementation. We are also committed to education across basic and advanced levels.

This report provides an overview of ongoing and recent projects; the researchers, teachers and advisors that are part of the team; and some background on the department, group and our related centres – the Swedish Centre for Agricultural Business Management (KCF) and the Swedish Competence Centre for Advisory Services (RådNu).
