With this tool, you can determine priorities for sustainability improvement, validate that present sustainability efforts are within your organization''s mission/vision, and provide a mechanism to integrate sustainability into everyday operations.

Stanislavsky and Place offers a new approach to actor training and theatrical direction by investigating Stanislavsky's question to his actors of "e;Where?"e; the action that they perform (and what preceded it) took place.This book explores how place functions beyond mere location in theatrical practice, addressing politics, colonialism, conflict and resistance through the lens of Stanislavsky's work. Featuring contributions from leading scholars Jonathan Pitches and Bella Merlin alongside diverse practitioners, the collection examines multiple dimensions of place-based performance. Essays analyse an Australian production of Ibsen's Enemy of the People addressing environmental concerns; perspectives from Australian First Nations and Settler-descent artists; Russian concepts of place that shaped Stanislavsky's approach; and the groundbreaking site-specific Vanya Project that incorporated local environments and embodied responses. The book also investigates how actors and mise-en-scene become emplaced, while examining concepts of displacement in multimedia performances that position character-actors simultaneously in multiple locations, particularly in modernist narratives like Kafka's. Throughout these varied contributions, place emerges as a richly ambiguous and often contested tool for understanding theatrical experience, offering fresh perspectives on Stanislavsky's enduring influence on contemporary performance practice.Stanislavsky And... is a series of multi-perspectival collections that bring the enduring legacy of Stanislavskian actor training into the spotlight of contemporary performance culture, making them ideal for students, teachers, and scholars of acting, actor training, and directing.

Business sustainability is the management of environmental, social, and financial demands to ensure responsible, ethical, and ongoing success. Businesses appear to have not only bought into integrating sustainability into their business plans, but have started profiting from it. This book helps project, program, and portfolio managers to integrate sustainability thinking into their projects. It contains tools that enable you to baseline present sustainability efforts and analyze the gaps between the baseline and the strategy.In Driving Project, Program, and Portfolio Success: The Sustainability Wheel, the authors present advice on how enterprises can attain higher levels of sustainability and sustained project success. The book introduces a new tool called the Sustainability WheelTM that tells you where you are and what you need to improve. The Sustainability Wheel identifies six interrelated dimensions of sustainability integration: Respect – the sustainability philosophy of the organizationReflect – how that philosophy is conveyed internallyConnect – how external stakeholders view the organizationDetect – how the organization identifies, analyzes, and responds to sustainability threatsReject – how the organization eliminates inefficiency and wasteProject – how the organization identifies, develops, and measures opportunities and converts them to projects and programs aligned with its central missionThe book contains a set of questions designed to measure your organization’s sustainability in each dimension. Armed with this valuable feedback, you can determine priorities for sustainability improvement, validate that present sustainability efforts are within your organization’s mission/vision, and provide a mechanism to integrate sustainability into everyday operations. This can lead your organization to key benefits such as improved innovation, reduced waste, higher morale, and simply better-executed projects that are more fully in line with the enterprise goals.Watch a video about the book.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfPSPvCg6QY
