Excellent- More about Sustainability and Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises: Lessons from Mixed Methods Research
Industrialization has brought great benefits, but it has also caused severe environmental damage. To prevent this, government, corporate, and community initiatives must focus on reducing the environmental impact of approximately 400 million small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This book provides a mixed method research design to improve knowledge generation and inform policy and practice, and provides an in-depth mapping of mixed method sustainability and SME research at a regional level.

Industrialization has brought about significant advancements for humanity, yet after centuries of relying on fossil fuels, extensive land clearing, and pollution, the Earth's boundaries are reaching their limits. Transgressing these boundaries would have catastrophic consequences for our species. To prevent such a dire outcome, governments, corporations, and communities must prioritize efforts to minimize the environmental impact of approximately 400 million small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as they account for approximately 70% of global pollution, 60% of carbon emissions, and significantly contribute to land degradation.
Research has revealed that SMEs have historically lagged in environmental sustainability, and there is a need for a deeper understanding to enhance sustainability within this sector. Expanding the research methodology beyond traditional singular approaches enhances knowledge generation and provides valuable insights for policy and practice.
This book serves as a groundbreaking guide, demonstrating that a mixed method research design can offer a comprehensive, diverse, and holistic understanding of sustainability and SMEs. Moreover, it provides an in-depth mapping of mixed method sustainability and SME research at a regional level. As this book focuses on environmental sustainability within a business context, it will be of immense interest to researchers, academics, students, and professionals in the industry who are seeking to understand the environmental sustainability of SMEs.
