Think Strategically – A Better CSR Definition
Dr. Kellie McElhaney, Founder of the Center for
Responsible Business at Haas, defines strategic
CSR as :
“Strategic corporate social responsibility is a
business strategy that is embedded in day to day
business operations, supports core business
objectives, and leverages core competencies
to create business value and positive social
change.”
CSR Internationally
CSR varies across countries due to societal norms,
legislative requirements, relations between business
and government and customer demands
Generally speaking, CSR – as we know it – is strongest
and most present within the US and Europe
More prevalent within companies based in developed
countries, though it is likely practiced across borders

Socially Responsible Investing (SRI)
SRI considers the financial and societal performance
of investments
Currently $2.7 trillion of the $25.1 trillion under
management in the US (324% growth since 1995)
Demonstrated competitive performance versus the
S&P 500 over the last two decades
Though empirical evidence demonstrates a
correlation between CSR and financial performance,
causation has been difficult to prove
Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs)
and Others
Power and reach of NGOs increasing
Environmental and social activism growing through
household name NGOs and emerging NGOs
Greenpeace
Environmental Defense Fund
Fair Labor Association (FLA)
World Wildlife Fund (WWF)
Web 1.0 and Web 2.0
Challenges
Regulatory Restrictions
Patchwork of international environmental and social
laws, protocals and treaties

European Emissions Trading Scheme, RGGI, US Clean
Air and Clean Water Acts
International Labor Organization, diverse working
standards
Government incentives for green jobs, investments,
cleantech
Consumer Indifference (?)
Bridging the gap between consumer statements and
actions – is price the only bottom line?
Educating the consumer – why do your company’s
CSR efforts make your product better?
Effectiveness versus goodness
Changing behavior remains the largest consumer
challenge
(Perceived) Cost Challenges
Overcoming the no-sum mindset: economic
performance versus environmental/social performance
Are CSR efforts a cost center or revenue driver?
Operational Improvements
Regulatory compliance
Stakeholder management
Opportunity Costs
Just Good Business
Alignment with corporate strategy
Responsible investment with positive NPVs
Critics and their arguments
The Friedman Doctrine: the social responsibility of
business is to increase profits
CSR is spending other peoples’ money
CSR dilutes government actions to address large-scale
social and environmental challenges
CSR is a sideshow to the core operations of a
company

Editor's Notes

  1. LOHAS consumers are early adopters, influential amongst family and friends, less price sensitive and brand loyal. Naturalites are “zealous about their personal health and use many healthy and natural CPGs”. Less committed to holistic sustainability. Conventionalists have interest in environmental products, are involved with environmental groups and legislation, represent CSR product potential. Drifters care but don’t always make the choices. Likely constrained by money, concerned with ability to make an impact as an individual.
