The work then explores the organisational methods of companies active in the green economy on the one hand, and the relationships they build with stakeholders and customers on the other. It is in this section that \u201cthe importance of organisational culture in disseminating the new green ideals through the various hierarchical levels\u201d is emphasised. The research concludes with an in-depth examination of the contradictions inherent in the development model based on the idea of unlimited resources and the linear economy. To better clarify the key aspects of his work, Merciadri also includes some case studies of companies that are particularly committed to sustainability, such as Contarina S.p.A., Alia Servizi Ambientali S.p.A., ASCIT S.p.A., Sea Risorse S.p.A..<\/p>\n<p>The author writes in his conclusion: \u201cI found success factors in all the companies concerned. The first factor that should be highlighted relates to communication and organisational culture. (\u2026) Another fundamental factor when pursuing sustainability is the design and realisation of state-of-the-arts plants. What matters most, however, is the feasibility of business culture taking a step towards a greater ubiquity of the principles of the circular economy and environmental sustainability.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wpsite-assets.fondazionepirelli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/12062522\/Tesi_Magistrale_Stefano_Merciadri.pdf\"><strong>Il ruolo delle imprese verso uno sviluppo sostenibile: analisi di eccellenze italiane e strategia &#8220;Rifiuti Zero&#8221;<\/strong><\/a> <strong>(<em>The role of businesses on the path towards sustainable development: an analysis of Italian leading companies and the \u201cZero Waste\u201d strategy<\/em>)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stefano Merciadri<\/p>\n<p>Thesis, University of Pisa, Business Communication and Human Resources Policy, 2021<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A thesis defended at the University of Pisa discusses the circular economy and its concrete chance of realisation. \u00a0 Corporate responsibility from an environmental point of view, too \u2013 a thorny issue not fully resolved as yet, and that therefore should be approached with care.
