...The World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) has identified alarming levels of growth in urbanization and consumption in a new report, and describes the crucial role of business in the transition to sustainability. According to the report, "Business and Development: Challenges and Opportunities in a Rapidly Changing World," published this month by WBCSD, "the world is experiencing a historic shift of economic and political power from the traditional base of industrialized countries to the emerging economies." As the report points out, by 2050, three of the four largest economies -- China, India, and Brazil -- will be those of countries now described as developing. As development in those and other countries intensifies, their populations will become increasingly urban. By 2050, when the world's population is expected to be about 9 billion, 70 percent of the world's population will live in urban environments, with the great majority living in cities in developing countries. "Urbanization is happening fast," the report observes, "And most of it is being poorly managed, putting hundreds of millions of the urban poor in harm's way." As the economic emergence of developing countries continues, global consumption patterns will become increasingly critical. "Global consumption patterns and trends are putting unsustainable and increasing stress on the Earth's ecosystems, the supply of material resources needed for industrial growth, and human social systems...

...JAPANESE MANAGEMENT Key practices commonly associated with Japanese management techniques include: * in-house training of managers * consensual and decentralized decision-making * extensive use of quality control methods * carefully codified work standards * emphasis on creating harmonious relations among workers * lifetime employment and seniority-based compensation Japanese management philosophy and techniques Nihonteki Keiei, or Japanese-style management, has become a popular phrase in the west. It refers to what people see as substantially different between Japanese management techniques and those widely practiced in the other countries. The differences often cited are: lifetime employment, job rotation, based seniority wage and promotion system, Ringi and consensus decision-making, just in time, quality circles, kaizen, and the suggestion system. Most of these techniques have become well known across the world. However, a successful implementation by western firms requires a critical understanding of their basic principles and operations, while some of the elements need to be critically assessed in the light of the structural problems of the Japanese economy since 1989. Lifetime employment (shushinkoyo) the main objective of offering lifetime employment or a job for life is to provide workers with a sense of security and identity. Once recruited, lifetime employees become members of the corporate family, which will have to take care of them for...

Corporate Social Responsibility is a generic word used all over the world, but as to use carefully in France because of Social. In a country where people are proud to have the best social system, we have to understand what is related to social and how to talk about it when it is linked to mores. France has adopted many legal frameworks and many companies have joined the United Nation Global Compact that makes France, one of the largest network. Moreover, CSR is related to history in France with the Human Right constitution. Nowadays, CSR is a key issue that has to be taking into consideration in a domestic that will impact an international scale. For France, CSR is not only related to ethnic issues bus can also have a good and a bad impact in social issues, economic in France and overseas and in the environment. France is perceived as one of the leader in CSR, more than 47% of French companies have an exemplary CSR management and system while only 40% in the OCDE and 15% in the BRICS. But France has a problem with the integration of ethical issues regarding risk management, recent conviction or rules policy. (Ecovadis, 2015).

...of Kerala in India. Tata Tea had sold off 17 tea estates in southern India to the company formed by its employees named Kanan Devan Hills Plantation Company Pvt. Ltd.(KDHPCL).

...critical importance. The motivations for these contracts are continuously being revisited to understand how CSR programs can nurture and contribute to the growth of firms. While CSR issues are attracting a great deal of attention in the developed world, there is a need for more research into CSR in the developing world. This paper considers the CSR practices of a small sample of multinational corporations (MNCs) and local firms in Bangladesh to better understand this situation. Introduction Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has generated significant debate in academic and corporate circles in recent times. This debate acknowledges the importance of CSR in the first-world, but raises questions regarding the extent to which corporations operating in developing countries have CSR obligations (Jamali and Mirshak, 2007). Conventional wisdom suggests that CSR is more relevant to corporations operating in the developed countries due to elevated community expectations of socially responsible behaviour. In contrast there is also a belief that societal expectations in the developing countries mainly centre on economic growth; therefore relegating CSR to be of lesser importance to the society and the firms (Khan, 1985). Against this back drop, this paper discusses the situation prevailing in the developing world to broaden our understanding of the perceptions and practices of CSR. Bangladesh is used as a test case for this purpose because this country is believed to posses the typical...

...In today’s business environment, a firm’s survival is dependent on how it responds to its stakeholders; CSR is a way that response is communicated. This paper explores whether CSR is necessary for the survival of Banyan Tree in today’s environment. We will evaluate the possible ways that CSR benefits the company and show that CSR is not necessary for Banyan Tree’s survival but it does play a strategic role in building brand equity along with a sustainable business. Introduction Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) There are multiple interpretations of what CSR means, and while there is no set principle, we have defined CSR as the duty of a corporation to create wealth in ways that avoid harm to, protect, or enhance societal assets for the purposes of discussion. Prevailing approaches to CSR were disconnected from strategy such that it obscured many opportunities for companies to benefit society . The outlook of CSR has changed since and modern business organizations have started to incorporate CSR, both internally and externally into their operations, aiming to achieve sustainable business development. This evolution arose due to increasing governmental regulations and societal expectations regarding the operation of companies, thus creating a divergence in business performance and expectations. CSR facilitates businesses in narrowing their performance-expectation gap . In the modern business environment, companies do not only compete on price and quality of...

...capitalism in the 1970s, the currency crisis in the 1980s or the financial crisis in 2007, business needed to readjust itself every time it reaches its limit. Especially concerning the collapse of the real estate and financial bubble in 2007, a re-orientation for organizations to concentrate on long-term performance instead of inconsiderately accumulating capital was and is required. “Adopting business strategies that meet the needs of the enterprise and its stakeholders today while sustaining the resources, both human and natural that will be needed in the future” (KPMG, 2011). Those strategies to fulfill sustainable criteria are the elements of Corporate Social Responsibility. But as Friedman mentioned, the goal of an organization is to increase its profits. Could this be a win-win-situation for organizations and the environment? Or is the assumption correct, that this obvious contrast could only satisfy one party? If so, wouldn’t be the use of CSR be more a marketing instrument than a way of improving the world? 2. Explaining CSR Corporate Social Responsibility is basically one aspect of the appropriate and needed role companies play in todays` society. The European Commission for Corporate Social Responsibility provides us with the following definition of CSR: "A concept whereby companies integrate social and...

...The Link Between Competitive Advantage & Corporate Social Responsibility | Business and Society | | There is currently growing interest in corporate social responsibility (CSR) among both companies and managers. It has become an important topic of theoretical concentration and one of the most widely accepted business concepts. The major issues in the field of CSR concern stakeholder analysis and corporate strategic management. Numerous attempts have been made to link CSR and financial performance. While the debate over CSR continues, it reveals that some additional research can be done on the link between CSR and competitive advantage (CA). CSR is understood to be the way firms integrate social, environmental, and economic concerns into their values, culture, decision making, strategy, and operations in a transparent and accountable manner (Berger, 2007). Thereby firms establish better practices within, create wealth, and improve society (Berger, 2007). CSR programs go beyond legal and ethical frameworks to include a wide range of issues for the organization (Berger, 2007). Specifically, CSR programs can impact a wide range of issues managed by the organization including: corporate governance and ethics programs; health, safety, and environment programs; attention to human and labor rights; human resource management policies; community involvement; respect for indigenous groups and minorities; corporate philanthropy and employee volunteering; adherence to principles...
