About
"In The Civil Corporation, Simon Zadek explores how far we should expect corporations to improve their social and environmental performance, and how best to realize this potential. Adopting his usual stance of 'optimistic scepticism', he argues that corporate citizenship is an outcome of the dynamics of the New Economy, as is the role of NGOs as civil regulators. Looking to the future, he suggests that the new civil governance will be rooted in a web of local, national and global private-public partnerships.". "For this future to meet the challenge of sustainable development, The Civil Corporation argues that the global business community will have to undergo radical change - innovating to evolve its cultures, competencies and, ultimately, its purpose. This challenge is explored through a practical examination of its key building blocks - negotiated boundaries of accountability, measurement, dialogue, and the institutional mechanisms for building trust."--BOOK JACKET.
