Corporate Responsibility 2.0 – Taking Your Commitment to the Next Level
Leading a company or managing a department in an environmentally and socially responsible way means more than becoming a "carbon-neutral business" or a "socially responsible corporate citizen." It means learning how to create ever-increasing value simultaneously for all stakeholders with every human and financial transaction for the life of your business. It means viewing your business as part of the larger system and intentionally choosing opportunities that have the best outcomes for the planet and humans, without trade-offs. It means, in short, redefining how you think about corporate responsibility.
Why This Program is Different
- No tradeoffs: the course considers all stakeholders, including the customer, shareholders, employees, communities and the earth simultaneously with no losers
- Systems thinking: you learn to think from a holistic perspective so all stakeholders receive a positive benefit
- Regenerative thinking: you consider how each stakeholder plays a role in bringing out the distinctive value of each of the other stakeholders
Who Should Attend
The CR 2.0 program is for business leaders who want to move beyond sustainability audits and corporate responsibility reports and truly change the way business is done today. You want to engage in meaningful learning that has immediate impact and no matter where you are in your corporate responsibility discussions, you want to go straight to making a real difference with your actions.
