Zusammenfassung
Environmental Social Governance (ESG) hat sich von einem Nischenbegriff der Finanzwelt zu einem Thema des öffentlichen Diskurses entwickelt. Doch aktuell wird das transformative Potenzial von ESG für die Entwicklung nachhaltiger Gesellschaften zunehmend in Frage gestellt. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, ESG stärker auf Effektivität statt auf Effizienz auszurichten. Dazu erweitert der Autor ESG konzeptionell durch die gesellschaftliche Rolle der Generation Z und durch Peter Druckers sowie Peter Pascheks Gedanken zur sozialen Verantwortung von Unternehmen. Durch die quantitative und qualitative Analyse zeigt der Autor schließlich, dass die ESG-Erweiterungen ein vielversprechendes Konzept für alle Unternehmen sein kann.
