Sustainability - A Guide for Boards and C-Suites is a succinct business-focused summary of how business leaders should think about the risks and opportunities associated with sustainability. The book includes the author’s insights not only from the approximately 60 board of directors meetings he has participated in, but also from the experiences of over 50 companies that have used the Corporate Sustainability Scorecard over the past 20 years.

The Corporate Sustainability Scorecard C-suite rating system was developed to facilitate conversations about sustainability in the boardroom. It helps to answer the question, "With respect to sustainability, how do we stack up today vis-a-vis our competitors, both in terms of best practices, and where leading companies are heading?"

This book is available for purchase on [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Sustainability-Guide-Boards-C-Suites/dp/1548322822/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1511796825&sr=1-1&keywords=gilbert+hedstrom).
