Globalization opposes Sustainability
Today’s sustainable management was first “lecture”. The theme of the lecture was Sustainable Supply Chain, and teacher explained this from company’s view and customer’s view.
From company:
Most impressive was the fact that globalization opposes sustainability. Globalization necessarily increases transportation, and distance between customer and production of goods. It means more consumption of fuels, concealment of negative information such as child labor or environmental destruction. And ultimately, the goal of the sustainable supply chain is to reduce resources; opposite to marketing.
From customer:
Sustainable Supply Chain means changes of lifestyle for customer. But it also opposition of economy; large consumptions and large productions for growth.
About presentation:
From her presentation, I leaned followings;
Common knowledge is waste of time
Slide should be formatted for efficient information
Credibility is important for attention
Sustainability is naturally boring area for students, because we do not know contradiction to environment in business situation; the core of this area.
