Creating a CSR Policy

By taking a strategic approach, organisations can determine what activities they have the resources to devote to being socially responsible. They can choose just the CSR activities that will strengthen their competitive advantage. By planning CSR as part of an organisation’s overall plan, we can ensure that profits and increasing shareholder value don’t overshadow the need to behave ethically to their stakeholders.
