This is an On-Line Workshop, delivered in 4 sessions at 1.5 hours each (March 22, 29, April 5 & April 12, 2011). All sessions recorded so you never miss a session.
Companies around the world, and their stakeholders, are increasingly aware of the need for and benefits of socially responsible behaviour.
Your company’s performance and "license to operate" is measured on its impact on society, the environment and good organizational governance.
In the recently released study Canadian Business Sustainability Priorities for 2011 , Dr. Tima Bansal, Executive Director, Network for Business Sustainability noted: "Corporations that fail to accommodate public interests through their private actions expose themselves to significant risks: they will lose customer markets; experience limited access to financial capital; and suffer disruptions to their supply of goods and services."
At the conclusion of this practical, fast paced and hands-on program you will be able to:
• Define Social Responsibility using the ISO 26000 as it relates to your organisation and supply chain.
• Apply Social Responsibility (ISO 26000) principles to current issues within your company and learn practical metrics and benchmarking methods.
• Identify Social Responsibility gaps in your current management systems and those of your supply chain.
• Integrate ISO 26000, a standardized social responsibility approach into your existing management systems and those of your supply chain.
• Explore tools, frameworks and software for practical application of ISO 26000.
