Authoring sustainability-minded case studies is one way CRB helps move sustainability further into the mainstream. Working with the Berkeley-Haas Case Series, the California Management Review, and our Sustainable Solutions Research Program, we develop case studies suitable for inclusion into the general business school curriculum.
Cases tackle real-time sustainability challenges companies face. We convene forums based on the case studies, to help companies understand the issue, identify potential solutions, and measure the impact.
