A Strategic Environmental Management System (SEMS) Innovation-Both Entrepreneurial and Technological-Is the Key
Abstract
Leading companies in the world are on a path to a new environ-
mental protection strategy based on pollution prevention, clean tech-
nologies, and environmentally responsible products. This new strat-
egy requires the full participation of everyone in the organization,
supported by an aggressive entrepreneurial and technological innova-
tion effort.
