20 10 trends for the next 10 years

21 1. Increasing integration of CSI "Companies that are breaking the mould are moving beyond corporate social responsibility to social innovation. These companies are the vanguard of the new paradigm. They view community needs as opportunities to develop ideas and demonstrate business technologies, to find and serve new markets, and to solve longstanding business problems." Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Harvard Business Review. 21

22 2. More focused CSI "That's been one of my mantras focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it's worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains. Steve Jobs "If you chase two rabbits, both will escape" Unknown 22

23 3. Involvement in advocacy work Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no help at all. Dale Carnegie 23

24 4. Greater employee engagement "In my view the successful companies of the future will be those that integrate business and employees' personal values. The best people want to do work that contributes to society with a company whose values they share, where their actions count and their views matter." Jeroen van der Veer, Committee of Managing Directors (Shell) 24

25 5. More consumer buy-in "People are going to want, and be able, to find out about the citizenship of a brand, whether it is doing the right things socially, economically and environmentally." Mike Clasper President of Business Development, Proctor and Gamble (Europe) 25

26 6. Increasing collaboration There is great value in diversity when solving complex problems" Barbara Dale-Jones BRIDGE Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much Helen Keller 26

27 7. More innovative financing The Social Impact Bond shines a spotlight on what works. George Overholser Investor and Social Entrepreneur A crowdfunding platform broadens the funding market and allows investors to finance the project irrespective of location. Prisiliya Madan, Cyclists for Change 27

28 8. Rise of technology and data Without big data, you are blind and deaf and in the middle of a freeway. Geoffrey Moore, author Hiding within those mounds of data is knowledge that could change the life of a patient, or change the world. Atul Butte, Stanford University 28

29 9. Greater transparency "Greater transparency is an unstoppable force. It is the product of growing demands from everybody with an interest in any corporation - its stakeholder web - and of rapid technological change, above all the spread of the Internet, that makes it far easier for firms to supply information, and harder for them to keep secrets With greater transparency will come greater accountability and better corporate behaviour. Rather than engage in futile resistance to it, firms should actively embrace transparency and rethink their values and generally get in better shape." Don Tapscott, co-author The Naked Corporation 29

30 10. Increasing professionalisation The change in the global socio-economic environment and focus on purpose-driven business models has raised the bar for CSR leaders. There is a new demand and reliance on CSR leaders to influence the private sector. Leaders are broadening their skills and influence across human resources, government affairs and branding to align social impact with their company s business strategy, talent pipeline, and policy environment. Many are starting to report directly to the CEO and are held accountable to lead strategic change initiatives from the top like point of entry marketing, market fit and business model innovation.
