Описание: In a post-Global Financial Crisis (2008) and post-COVID-19 (2020) competitive world, an organisational strategy needs to be promoted for gaining sustained competitive advantage by creating value. So, there is a need for a thorough study to explore the current value creation practices in commercial organisations and recommend a framework to accelerate the process of value creation. This book explores how sustainability and shared value are facilitating the process of value creation within banking organisations and property organisations. Considering a multiple case study approach and constructivist paradigm, eight Australian case studies are exemplified to denote how practical issues can be examined through the new sustainability lens. The four thematic components explored in this book are a) clean technology, b) sustainability vision at the bottom of the pyramid, c) reconceiving products/services and d) redefining the value chain. In the context of social and economic value creation by the Australian organisations, the underlying objectives of the book are to a) explore the adoption of components of the applied sustainable value and shared value business models by Australian banking and property organisations for social and economic value creation; and b) empirically develop an alternative business model for the Australian banking and property industries, based on emerging components from industry-wide interview responses. Our research resulted in many findings that showed a number of industry-wide differences. However, the notable and main difference was that a) banking organisations predominantly leverage sustainability based on product/service innovation at the bottom of the pyramid level, and b) property organisations predominantly leverage environmental sustainability based on the application of clean technology through redefining the value chain. The primary interview data analysis suggests that the selected Australian sustainable and shared value organisations also emphasise the co-creation of value based on their engagement with customers, stakeholders, and communities. The secondary data analysis suggest that the selected Australian property organisations ensure a higher increase in net profit after tax and return on equity compared to the selected banking organisations. The main recommendation emanating from industry case interviews and presented in this book is an empirically developed alternative business model for value co-creation based on two new thematic components, which are a) stakeholder engagement and b) community resilience. The book will come as a guide to future academic researchers and practice managers in implementing the recommended value co-creation business model to create social and economic value.

This chapter will outline the structure of the book and its importance with regard to increasing equality and reducing the gender pay gap. In particular, the changing role of fathers and societal expectations for increased paternal involvement within a context of minimal actual change will be introduced.
This chapter will outline the methods utilised in the research.
Chapter 2 Caregiving Fathers and the Fatherhood Forfeit
This chapter introduces the notion of the fatherhood forfeit and sets the context. Context setting will involve exploring key literature and recent reports and data from ONS, Working Families and the House of Commons Select Committee on "Fathers at Work". It will explain the historical, legislative and political landscape for caregiving fathers in the UK, and the way in which these have impacted on both labour market participation and the division of parental responsibilities. It will then present survey data obtained through a vignette study which is suggestive that fathers are less likely to obtain part time work to enable an active involvement in the caregiving of their children than mothers.
Chapter 3 Think Child- Think Mum
This chapter will begin by exploring the current literature, offering explanations why mothers are often considered as the primary parent. This will include discussion of gendered stereotypes, their influence on norms of behaviour and implications. It will also explore the existence of behavioural expectations within the workplace for parents, emphasising the differing expectations of mothers and fathers.
Next, it will present the data obtained through semi-structured interviews utilising illustrative quotes (possibly case studies?). It will demonstrate how many parents and managers in this research felt that there was an automatic assumption that the mother is always the primary parent, regardless of the working hours of the parents and that any deviation from this is considered as unconventional. Throughout the chapter the data will be linked to the existing academic terrain, outlining the ways in which this work both corresponds with and contradicts existing work.
Chapter 4 Support Available- Subject to Negotiation
This chapter will begin by charting the current literature which explores the challenges faced by fathers in the workplace when they attempt to obtain organisational support for caregiving. Referring to both key literature and recent reports, it will discuss workplace outcomes when fathers challenge the purported social norms by seeking more flexible working patterns to enable an active role in the caregiving of their children.
As with the previous chapter, the data obtained in this research will then be presented through use of illustrative quotes (possibly case studies?) to demonstrate that fathers often obtain less support for caregiving in the workplace than mothers and that any workplace support for caregiving is often conditional and context specific. The data will be consistently linked back to existing academic work, highlighting areas of contradiction and confirmation.
Chapter 5 Social Mistreatment of Caregiving Fathers
This chapter presents existing knowledge regarding social and workplace outcomes when fathers challeng
