CSR-A speak at the GGI European Regional Conference

I am so pleased to have now delivered my keynote speech on “social responsibility-driving forward successfull business” at the GGI | Global Alliance European conference in Cyprus.

Speaking to 180 global financial and legal businesses about building a validated social responsibility / ESG strategy into their business models to ensure long term sustainability and profitability.

Now I have my feet firmly back on the ground I would like to thank the GGI | Global Alliance | and hosts M. ELIADES & PARTNERS LLC for the opportunity to enlighten their members about the importance of social responsibility / ESG and share the stage with Dr Michalis Sarris former Cypriot Minister of Finance.

CSR-A  are looking to making a measurable positive difference and in time I know we will be able to show the collective positive impact that GGI members have made.

CSR-A run the only CSR Accreditation scheme in the UK and now operate globally
The CSR Accreditation is an effective way to benchmark what you are already doing with regard to social responsibility. It is a process in which you collate, measure and report on your organisation’s socially responsible activities. An accreditation will also provide you with a roadmap for planning future activity.

This is a fully holistic and inclusive approach that allows for all organisations – private, public and third sector and is for all sizes from sole traders to large corporations. It employs a white paper approach that promotes an organisation’s individuality.

The application process provides a simple and straightforward template where you record activity against the Social Responsibility ‘Four Pillars’ of environment, workplace, community and philanthropy. Each Social Responsibility Pillar is designed to help you impact report on areas such as energy performance, recycling, staff engagement, health and well-being, community engagement and support for local and national charities.

The establishment of a CSR Accreditation is a crucial component of a company’s competitiveness and something that should be led by the business itself. For companies, the overall aim is to achieve a positive impact on society as a whole while maximising the creation of shared value for the owners of the business, its employees, shareholders and stakeholders.
