Corporate Responsibility

Reporting on the SDGs Action Platform

Transparency is fast becoming the new paradigm for conducting business.

GRI and the UN Global Compact have initiated a ground-breaking initiative, ‘Reporting on the SDGs, to enable businesses to incorporate SDG reporting into their existing processes and promote their contribution to the Global Goals.

Corporate Responsibility

Corporate Reputation Drives Both Kinds of CCO

After decades working alongside chief communications officers, I figured other corporate professional masquerading under the CCO acronym had little in common with the wordsmiths who manage corporate messaging.

This makes the case for engaging in pro-bono ever-more compelling: resource-strapped nonprofits can tap into the well of skills and energy that exists in the corporate sector to fuel much-needed investment in organizational capacity.
