How can you help organizations change to meet the corporate responsibility agenda?

Abstract: As corporate responsibility (CR) has developed over the past decade, companies have developed and communicated their formal values relating to environment, employees, stakeholders and governance through public statements. Many of these companies have produced formal reports covering their performance on environmental and social issues.

Despite such wide-spread presence in the literature it is generally recognized that many if not most multinational corporations (MNCs) do not appear to have fully embraced many of the principles of CSR (Slavin, 2004), and despite the recognition that buy-in from operational managers throughout the organization is important for CSR success (Lyon, 2004) a review of online databases such as ABI/INFORM Global, Proquest Direst and Science Direct does not shed light on the degree to which operational managers actually embrace the concepts of CSR. The purpose of this paper is to examine the 18 R. L. Engle to the American civil rights movement (Davies, 2003).…”
