8th International Conference on Management and Organization

Montenegro, Hotel Maestral, Pržno | 3–6 June, 2026

SUSTAINABILITY BY DESIGN:
RETHINKING STRATEGY, PEOPLE & DIGITAL FUTURES

Sustainability is not an endpoint, but a guiding principle in designing the future. The quest for sustainability has become one of the most pressing imperatives of our age. Sustainability by design calls for a fundamental rethinking: it must be intentionally embedded into the way strategies are conceived, human potential is organized, and digital technologies are deployed.

        Final Call: We invite scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to contribute insights that rethink the role of strategy, people, and digital futures in shaping a more sustainable world.
