Opis

Corporate Responsibility (CR) has never been more prominent on the corporate agenda. More companies are coming to understand that it is in their economic interest to address social and environmental impacts in a manner that is integrated with their operations. CR encompasses issues such as sustainability (meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs), stakeholder management, and corporate governance, as well as corporate philanthropy. Mainstreaming Corporate Responsibility takes an innovative approach to CSR. Based around case studies commissioned by EABIS, the book is structured around major subject areas in the business school curriculum. It provides a chapter on the relevance of CR to each subject area and identify CR issues to be addressed.

Blurb

Corporate Responsibility has never been more prominent on the corporate agenda. As managers find that they must grapple with increasingly complex social and environmental problems as an integral part of business strategy and operations, they require different knowledge, skills and competencies than in the past. Mainstreaming Corporate Responsibility pioneers a way for business schools to equip future business leaders and managers with the knowledge, skills and competencies to meet the current challenges.

Based upon a major curriculum development project run by the INSEAD Social Innovation Centre, London Business School and EABIS, this book is a collection of texts and cases for use in both core and specialized courses across the business disciplines, including strategy, accounting, entrepreneurship, marketing, operations, and finance. This book will also be an ideal choice for the main text on Corporate Social Responsibility courses. Many of the cases included in this book have never previously been published.
