<p> </p><p>This paper covers how a company must act to become “greener” and yet still increase profitability with the main emphasis on the inner structure of the company. The research is focused on the Swedish security systems company Niscayah AB, part of the multinational corporation Niscayah Group with approximately 6000 employees. A company can be assumed to consist of seven parts (strategy, systems, structure, super-ordinate goals, staff, skills and style) that have to cooperate for the firm to be able to become more environmentally friendly. Also, the economic performance is of importance and therefore that too is examined. Niscayah performs well in some of the parts, such as their systems and the green initiatives from the decision makers, and not as good in their structures and strategy. Furthermore we discovered another factor that is important and that affects all seven parts, communication. In this aspect, the company performs poorly and our suggestion is to spread more information about results and goals concerning the “green work”.</p><p> </p>
