of business operations and processes that are used to integrate the sustainability into various

The subject of the project, being associated with the management of change within the
organisation, it would be related to the management of sustainability from the
organizational context for bringing some new and refined products in the market and draw
in new customers (Deanne and Paul 2013). Thus, the strategic role of the leader is critical for
the success of managing sustainability and bring out new products that could cater the needs
of people and ensure successful management of change at Tesco.
