1. Read the sustainability section of the Interface Carpets website at http://www.interfaceglobal.com/Sustainability.aspx. Watch and reflect: Watch the interview with Ray Anderson, former CEO of Interface Carpets at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2LOUBme8rw. Now go to the Interface website and read and reflect on the sustainability sections of the website. In particular watch the short videos in the ‘Challenges’ section covering closed loop products, zero footprint and engaged culture. Reflect on these videos and summarise in no more than 200 words. (a) what you consider to be the key factors driving the success of Interface’s sustainability initiatives, and (b) how Interface has integrated the principles of natural capitalism into the people, process and culture? You may find it useful to compare the innovation of Interface to the achievements of your own organisation or an organistion with which you are familiar'. 2. Case Study Fuji Xerox Australia Eco manufacturing Centre: A case study in strategic sustainability http://sustainability.edu.au/material/teaching-materials/fuji-xerox-australia-eco-manufacturing-centre-case-study-strategic-sustainability/ Fuji Xerox is a leader in the development and application of sustainable operations. A key aspect of the company’’s leadership is in its ground-breaking development of remanufacturing. Before 1993, broken or damaged parts from Fuji Xerox equipment were sent to landfill and replaced with imported parts. This meant that, for example, a AU<0,000 circuit board with only minor defects was considered waste. This system carried considerable financial and environmental costs. In Australia, it was decided to roll out a trial remanufacturing project that had begun in the US. The Fuji Xerox Australia Eco manufacturing Centre (the Centre) was established, with the mandate to develop technological capabilities to enable remanufacturing. The Centre now accounts for 80% of Fuji Xerox Australia’’s spare parts requirements –– these parts would otherwise have gone to landfill. The success of the Centre rests on both technological advances and a new, high performance workplace culture. In this case, we explore the challenges faced in developing strategic sustainability at Fuji Xerox. Reflecting on Baumgartner’s view on efficiency strategy, can you find evidence of this strategy in the firm’s values and corporate philosophy? Is Fuji Xerox a sustaining corporation as defined in the text? Please justify your response. What lessons can you take from this case that might be relevant to your own organisation? Detail your ideas in no more than 200 words. Reflect on your responses, in particular how they relate to your own organisation
