Flexibility and ability to change
TOOLS - CR Index contributing to change
Greater emphasis of CR as a source of competitive
advantage - Leaders moving from Risk to Opportunity.
Board-level ownership more prevalent & visible.
Further progress in systems & programmes to
incentivise, train & communicate with employees.
More companies involving stakeholders in identifying
risks, opportunities and performance indicators.
TOOLS - CR Index contributing to change
More evidence of social & environmental
issues influencing decision making – on
new investments; development of new
products & services (But often isolated
examples)
Trend of public disclosure continuing
Tools - Areas for improvement
Limited forward-looking commitments – outlooks rarely extend
beyond the year ahead.
Supply-chain management a key area for improvement
Demonstrating continuous improvement in social and environmental
impact proving an enduring challenge.
Only 2 in 5 companies have company wide assurance processes
Climate Change - companies still focusing their efforts on
incremental yearly improvements.
