Now, more than ever, it is important for all types of businesses to have authentic corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives that are not a publicity spin.
Research shows that CSR improves long-term business performance and that consumers prefer to patronise organisations with strong histories of social responsibility and are more likely to buy from companies with strong ethical values. Customers and employees are speaking with their values as well as their wallets.
Therefore, CSR is now considered a critical part of a company’s performance and reputation. In this webinar you will learn how to incorporate CSR values into a business strategy and brand. You will also understand the difference between CSR and PR. This will enable you to create strong, enduring brands, where the PR and marketing flows from the CSR values, which will benefit your employees and customers, including investors.
