Popis:	Circular economy is an innovative approach to operationalize principles of sustainability management. The concept is based on the ‘closing the loop’ of product lifecycles and is expected to bring benefits for environment and economy as well as to contribute to the responsible business conduct. These benefits refer to reduced usage of resources, lower impact on the natural environment, cost savings and jobs creation. The implementation of circular economy has a disruptive impact on company operations and leads to the need of establishing new business models. While the concept remains significantly unexplored, few studies outline a practical approach to implement principles of circular economy in companies.
