Michael E. Porter&Mark R. Kramer

Page 2: Group 3_CSR

The Emergence of CSR

Increasing attention to CSR from governments, activists, media, and others

Companies are being held accountable. For example, Nike faced an extensive consumer boycott after New York Times reported abusive labor practices in early 1990s

Page 3: Group 3_CSR

Four prevailing justifications for CSR

Moral obligation

• Companies have a duty to be good citizens and to do the right thing

Sustainability

• Meeting the needs of present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs

License to operate

• Every company needs tacit or explicit permission from government to do business

Reputation

• To justify CRS activities on the grounds that activities will improve companies image

Page 4: Group 3_CSR

Presumption of Conflict

Traditional approaches assume that companies and society are in conflict

Pits business against societyA zero-sum gameThis is counterproductive, since the two are

interdependentCompanies fail to recognize the importance of

CSR in their strategies

• To identify possible social consequences of action• To discover opportunities to benefit society and themselves• To discover CSR initiatives to address• To find the most effective way to do so

Strategic CSRIntegrating External Context and Strategy: Nestlé in India

Nestlé entered Moga in 1962, when the region was in severe poverty

Local milk supply was hampered by small parcels of land, poor soil, periodic droughts, animal disease, and lack of a market

Nestlé established local milk purchasing organizations in each town

Page 14: Group 3_CSR

Strategic CSRIntegrating External Context and Strategy: Nestlé in India

Nestlé invested in improving competitive context– Collection infrastructure such as refrigerated dairies

was accompanied by veterinarians, nutritionists, agronomists, and quality assurance experts to assist small farmers

– Medicines and nutritional supplements to improve animal health

– Monthly training sessions for local farmers– Wells to secure water supply for animals were dug

with financing and technical assistance from Nestlé

Strategic CSRIntegrating External Context and Strategy: Nestlé in India

Nestlé has built a productive milk cluster in Moga sourcing milk from 75,000 farmers through 650 dairies

Moga has much improved social conditions and a far higher standard of living

Nestlé has developed a long-term competitive advantage in the milk cluster in numerous developing countries

Page 16: Group 3_CSR

Organizing for CSR Unify corporate giving and CSR Engage operating management in identifying value

chain impacts and social dimensions of the competitive context

Incorporate social performance metrics into overall business measurement

Measure the social impact of company activities, not just stakeholder satisfaction

Companies need to shift CSR from a fragmented, defensive posture to an integrated, affirmative approach

Page 17: Group 3_CSR

The Moral Purpose of Business

The most important thing a corporation can do for society is to contribute to a prosperous economy

Corporations are not responsible for all the world’s problems, nor do they have the resources to solve them all

Business has the tools, capabilities, and resources to make a far greater positive impact on social issues than most other institutions

Business is more transparent and more accountable than most foundations and NGOs

Addressing social issues through shared value strategies will lead to self-sustaining solutions
