It is expected. With increasing pressures from stakeholders to improve the bottom line as well as to be good corporate citizens, business leaders face tough decisions. What social issues should we support? What initiatives should we develop that will do the most good for the company as well as the cause? Do we include social messages in our advertising, encourage our employees to volunteer, do we modify our business practices? How do we integrate a new initiative into current strategies? These and other challenges will continue to face future leaders. This book provides thoughtful answers to these important questions, and to many more. The book offers suggestions on how to choose among major worthy causes and also how to measure the amount of good achieved both for the recipients and the companies themselves. Of course, all is not only about challenges, there are loads of opportunities that go along with them but it?s only responsible and sustainable leaders who would be able to spot these opportunities. That is the future which awaits 21st century leaders. 410 0$aCSR, Sustainability, Ethics & Governance,$x2196-7075 606 $aBusiness ethics 606 $aPublic administration 606 $aLeadership 606 $aBusiness Ethics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/526000 606 $aPublic Administration$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34030 606 $aBusiness Strategy/Leadership$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515010 615 0$aBusiness ethics. 615 0$aPublic administration. 615 0$aLeadership. 615 14$aBusiness Ethics. 615 24$aPublic Administration. 615 24$aBusiness Strategy/Leadership. 676 $a658.408 702 $aOkpara$b John O$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aIdowu$b Samuel O$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438067803321 996 $aCorporate social responsibility$9243544 997 $aUNINA
