Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a frequently-used phrase that has become a significant and important corporate challenge. However, it also shares the fate of many management techniques and fashions. There are numerous and varied definitions, ideas, myths and misconceptions about CSR.
CSR has become essential in today's world, more and more overtly given the current climate of environmental and social awareness. Howver, only a few organizations fully exploit its existing opportunities.
The European Chamber is pleased to have experts from TUV Rheinland and TNT present CSR as a strategic process and demonstrate how it can even be used to achieve long-term competitive advantages, even in these cash-conscious times.
