The Corporate Social Responsibility Strategies and Activities Employed By the...iosrjce
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) playa an increasingly important role in business success
today, and economic, political, and social factors are shaping CSR strategies around the world. Approached
strategically, CSR has the potential to generate opportunity, innovation and competitive advantage for
organizations while solving pressing social problems. The study explored the effectiveness of CSR strategies on
organizational performance by ascertaining whether responsibility towards primary stakeholders influences the
financial and non-financial performance of commercial banks. The author focused on the Equity Bank in Kenya.
Content analysis of the Bank’s financial reports between the years 2006 and 2012 was done to ascertain the
relationship between CSR and performance of the Bank. The establishment of EGF, a fully fledged subsidiary of
Equity Bank, to handle all aspects of social responsibility for the Bank is a clear attestation of how important
and serious the institution considers CSR in their day-to-day operations. The categorization of the CSR
strategies into thematic areas showed that, to the Eank, social responsibility is not just a philanthropic deed to
society but a strategic tool for furtherance of business objectives, including stakeholder relationships. The study
recommended the need for organizations to be more inclusive and participatory among all the stakeholders at
all levels of implementation as well as further research to determine the level at which CSR impacts on
performance and the influence of prior organizational performance on social responsibility.

Consider how organizational design is affected by The choice of goals and strategy. New goals and strategies are often selected based on environmental needs, and then top management attempts to redesign the organization to achieve those ends.
Performance measurements feedback into the internal environment, so that past performance of the organization is assessed by top management in setting new goals and strategies for the future.
Choices that top management makes about goals, strategy, and organizational design have a huge impact on organizational effectiveness.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Karlsson,Jonkoping Business School, Implementing CSR
With respect to strategic CSR, programmes or policies
which are related closely to the organization's
mission or tightly linked to its accomplishment have
much higher centrality than traditional broad-based
corporate philanthropy programmes. For example,
the design, testing and manufacture of air bags for
automobiles-a socially responsible product-was
highly central to TRW, as was the correction of safety
problems with this product. Similarly, political
activities in support of mandatory automobile safety
equipment have high centrality for a manufacturer of
such equipment. But even philanthropy decisions can
have a high degree of centrality
Specifity –how much the firm benefits from it
Proactivity is the planiing and anticipating the technological and social atmosphere isn the company and tekin gmeasure before smth happens
Identify the stakeholders which are critically
important for achieving the firm's mission, goals
or strategic objectives.
o Determine the socially valuable CSR policies, programmes
and projects which address the needs
and interests of these stakeholders.
o Assess the opportunities offered by these CSR projects
to enhance the firm's attainment of strategic
objectives or to solve significant problems and
threats facing the firm. (Centrality.)
o Assess the degree to which these CSR projects
offer benefits which can be captured and/or internalized
by the firm as opposed to all firms in the
industry or society at large. (Specificity.)
o Anticipate future changes in the firm's environment
and changes in the needs of its key stakeholders
which could be addressed through
proactive CSR policies and activities. (Proactivity.)
o Determine the baseline of mandated requirements
in order to identify the opportunities for voluntary
acti vities. (Vol un tarism.)
In this step it is important to find out where the company is today and where they would
like to be and then form different solutions of how to reach the preferred stage. These solutions
shall then be compared and the most efficient one should be selected.
Once having selected the strategy they would like to use the third step of integration becomes
very important. This step is crucial for the outcome of the implementation of the
CSR activity. If the activity is well integrated with the day to day business of the company
and the goal as well as the means of how to reach it is clearly conveyed to everyone involved
the CSR activity is more likely to be successful in terms of reaching the goal. This
step is not easy and also very time-consuming in most cases. However if the first and second
step has been thoroughly conducted this facilitates the third step a lot. If the manger
49
for example has a clear picture of what he would like to implement and how to implement
it, it is easier for him/her to convey the information to the different employees of what
there task in it will be and what is expected from them. If the employees get a clear understanding
of what they are meant to do and why they are more likely to do the job correctly
thus ensuring that everyone is working towards the same goal as well as doing the right
Since the ‘business case’
drives CSR, it is not surprising that many corporate social initiatives do not go
beyond narrowly philanthropic gestures; for example donating objects such as
schoolbooks, mosquito nets or lifejackets to local communities, without any
attempt to consult either the community itself or development specialists. Even
The false developmental promise of Corporate Social Responsibility
In Nigeria, the author witnessed many non-functioning white
elephants, including unfinished buildings designed to be health clinics or schools,
water projects where the water was unfit for consumption, or projects such as
health clinics which lacked light, running water, basic equipment or staff.
587
such simple gestures sometimes end up as failures. In Equatorial Guinea,
ExxonMobil donated mosquito nets to the Health Ministry for malaria prevention,
but officials then reportedly sold them not least through export to
Cameroon.
Many of these problems could be avoided through in-depth consultation
and the participation of the local people in genuine self-help initiatives using
local knowledge, skills and tools. But the involvement of local communities is
inherently constrained by the companies’ lack of developmental expertise and
the technical/managerial approaches of oil company staff.
Few people with overseas development expertise move into commercial
companies, and community development units are often staffed with
managers, former administrative staff, engineers or former government officials.
When BP initiated courses to teach its managers about issues such as biodiversity
and global warming, they typically turned to a business school (the
Judge Management Institute at Cambridge University) rather than a development
institution. Furthermore, the staff often spend very little time in the field
and lack an understanding of specific local problems.
The internal workings of oil companies also render long-term development
initiatives more difficult. Asset managers are often rotated among subsidiaries in
different countries (BP moves them every four years), so they tend to lack a
long-term commitment to the local communities where the firm operates.
Even if one asset manager is committed to genuine CSR, his/her successor
may not be as committed and may simply halt a social initiative begun by the
predecessor. Thus the championing of development projects with a long-term
planning horizon may depend on the leadership of individual managers whose
term of office is inherently limited.
Since projects are often driven by short-term expediency, ‘decisions are
taken at too low a level as to which projects to execute’, as one development
professional put it. So there may be little coordination in determining which
areas should benefit and how projects can be put together to contribute to a
greater whole. In one local area visited by the author, an oil company in
Nigeria built a road which ran parallel to another road built by the Niger Delta
Development Commission: this is an extreme example of coordination failure,
but it underlines the importance of planning and coordination for the success
of development projects.
Worse still, by not integrating CSR into macro-level developmental plans,
oil companies run the risk of causing local conflicts and creating negative

developmental consequences. One example from Nigeria is the concept of a
‘host community’, according to which oil companies have a social responsibility
towards the local community located closest to their oil facilities. Preference
for one community may breed jealousy from other communities and give
rise to intercommunal conflicts.
