Breaking with academic tradition, this journal offers a unique selection of articles that are written by looking at the future challenges first and then translating these into present times. The right-aligned layout is a material way of reminding us of the fact that “no problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it” (A. Einstein). The journal provides hands-on, pragmatic and user-friendly research, suggestions and case studies as a resource for organisations that are committed to implementing sustainability. It is high time to build bridges between business and academia, with the clear purpose of helping business become truly sustainable. There are four dimensions to the journal: 1. Understand sustainability challenges 2. Specific dimensions of business sustainability 3. Exciting new solutions to implement 4. Case studies of leading business examples. In addition, produced is a special issue annually dedicated to an important theme. This is a special Issue of Building Sustainable Legacies.
