Sustainability depends less on consumer choices and more on how supply chains are structured. Research on Brazil’s beef sector shows that, despite the BRSL initiative to improve sustainability, results fell short. Four types of distance geographical, organizational, cultural, and relational hindered collaboration. These gaps created communication problems and weakened trust among stakeholders. Real progress requires external mediators, such as governments or NGOs, to reconnect the entire supply chain.

Italy’s Waste Crisis: How the Mafia Turned Trash into Tragedy

For over 40 years, poor waste management in Italy allowed the Mafia to illegally dispose of toxic waste, causing a major health crisis and soaring cancer rates. Despite late government intervention, economic interests consistently outweighed environmental and public protection. This crisis shows that waste management is fundamentally about power and social justice, with certain communities unfairly bearing the burden.

What is disability at work?

Why talk about disability at work? Disability affects 30% of the population, often invisible and rarely discussed. Yet, open conversations about disability in the workplace promote inclusion and improve accessibility for everyone through the “curb-cut effect.” Discover why every effort matters to create a fairer and more welcoming work environment.

What does gender equality in organizations really mean?

Gender equality goes beyond numbers it’s about inclusion. While laws like Copé-Zimmermann have increased women’s representation, true equality means ensuring their voices influence decisions and their contributions are valued. Intersectionality shows that barriers are often compounded by factors like ethnicity or age. The real transition is moving from diversity to inclusion creating cultures where every voice counts and equality drives innovation and resilience.

What if, for a woman, earning more than her partner actually held back… her own career?

Even when women earn more than their partners, they still take on more household work, which holds back their careers. This imbalance is driven by persistent social norms around masculinity and women’s roles. Only couples with equal incomes escape this dynamic. Addressing it requires open conversations between partners, but also public policies and company initiatives.

The circular economy in European small and medium-sized enterprises

Circular Economy (CE) practices have the potential to increase the sustainable, societal and environmental performance of organisations and therefore contribute to meeting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The objective of this research is to examine the adoption of sustainable practices by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and its impact on their environmental and societal performance.

How do global companies make wise choices of countries for sourcing their suppliers?

Antony, together with his colleagues from NEOMA, presents research conducted with the University of Bristol on how international companies choose countries for sourcing. The concept of "country risk," once focused on economic conditions and political stability, now includes three major sociopolitical factors: populism, which creates regulatory uncertainty; state fragility, which affects suppliers’ ability to deliver; and checks and balances, which can limit but not always prevent political drift. The study, covering 1,300 U.S. companies and their suppliers in 90 countries, shows that these factors directly influence sourcing decisions. Examples like Samsung and H&M illustrate this shift toward countries perceived as more stable. In conclusion, companies must strengthen their geopolitical monitoring to anticipate risks and secure their supply chains.

Should Robotic Warehouses Consider Customer Fairness?

Robotic warehouses have transformed logistics, prioritizing speed and efficiency. However, traditional static priority systems often leave low-priority customers facing excessive delays, raising concerns about fairness. This research, based on Invia, a robotic warehouse company, proposes a dynamic priority allocation model to balance efficiency and fairness. By adjusting order priorities over time, this approach ensures that both high-priority and long-waiting low-priority orders receive timely fulfillment. Through stochastic modeling and simulations, we demonstrate that dynamic prioritization reduces delays compared to static and first-come, first-served (FCFS) models. Case studies in e-commerce and healthcare logistics illustrate the broader impact of fairness in automation. As industries increasingly rely on AI-driven decision-making, the balance between efficiency and equity becomes critical. This research challenges the assumption that robotic warehouses should optimize for speed alone and advocates for a future where fairness plays a central role in automated commerce.
