Partnerships unified for a cause
Today's business leaders operate in a rapidly changing landscape. Digitally empowered consumers and employees, rapidly changing technology, explosive numbers of non-governmental organizations and causes, constantly changing markets and market conditions, intense competition for talent - all these and more create a whirlwind of demands on leaders. The only constant is the pace of change and it's breakneck speed.
Among the most seismic of changes is the new normal between businesses and social change organizations. In today's flat and fast changing world, businesses have become newly accountable for issues that were formerly the domain of governments.
Issues like labor relations and factory conditions, natural resource protection, health and wellness, and responsible business and marketing practices have become the daily concern of CEOs and business leaders. Today's business leaders are called upon by their vast array of stakeholders to not only manage their supply chains, balance sheets and economic performance, but also to lead communities and movements as statesmen and women who are responsible for a broad range of social and political agendas.
