The Demand for CSR is Rising
While not a new concept or strategy, Corporate Social Responsibility programs are on the rise. Over the last couple of years, as natural disasters continued to pick up in intensity and COVID19 brought rising income and healthcare inequalities to center stage, Corporations have increasingly been pouring more focus into their own efforts around giving back. Are you equipped to grow and evolve your CSR programs as consumers, investors and employees continue to demand more accountability and action from companies?
Help your corporation align profit and purpose by mobilizing the collective power of your employees to make a positive impact.
