Corporate Social Responsibility is Not Public Relations by Sangeeta Waldron Pdf

How to put Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at the heart of your company and maximise the business benefits Research shows that CSR improves longterm business performance and that consumers prefer to patronise organisations with strong histories of social responsibility. Today’s customers and employees are speaking with their values as well as their wallets! Consumers are sensitive to empty promises and want brands to be committed to the planet, sustainability and other social issues. This book argues that trust is at stake for every organisation and is the reason why communications strategies must respond authentically. If you can’t be authentic about social initiatives, then don't do it because CSR is not a publicity tool! Yet some see the relationship as nothing but a marketing trick—an organisation's blatant selfpromotion. Inside these pages you will find invaluable insights from established companies like Tata, Dabur, and ITC, alongside interviews with global business leaders and emerging social entrepreneurs responding to this shifting perspective of CSR worldwide and in India. This book will define the real role of PR in CSR and what that relationship should be. Sangeeta Waldron is an awardwinning public relations and media professional and is the author of The PR Knowledge Book. She is often invited to global events, where she speaks about the media, CSR and diversity in business.

The Four Conversations by Jeffrey D. Ford,Laurie W. Ford Pdf

Talk is powerful. And it isn't just ‘difficult' conversations that matter— the everyday dialogue we have with one another is critical to both personal and organizational success. Packed with sample dialogues and dozens of personal stories, and backed by solid research and the authors' firsthand observations, The Four Conversations describes how to get maximum results from conversations that every one of us must use to get things done: initiative conversations introducing something new, understanding conversations to help people relate to ideas or processes, performance conversations requesting specific actions, and closure conversations that recognize achievements and signal completion of the work. As Jeffrey and Laurie Ford clearly demonstrate, engage in the right conversation at the right time—plan and start each one well, finish every one effectively—and extraordinary things can happen.
