1 The Changing Role of the CR ProfessionalTrack One approaches current problems faced by CR managers and directors and meetsthem head on. We know the role of the CR team is changing, and this track addressesthat change.

Track one splits into three parts, to mirror the three main roles of the CR professional:

Taking in information Taking action and implementing strategy Measurement and feedback

2 Dealing with the RecessionEvery CSR professional knows how the recession is impacting day-to-day work, in termsof increased problems and pressure and reduced resources. But the other side of the coinis one of unprecedented opportunity. In this track, youll focus firstly on thereprioritisation the recession has forced on everyone in CSR, and learn how to makeprogress even with extremely limited resources.

3 Dealing with the EnvironmentA problem as huge as climate change isn't going away just because the world ispreoccupied with a giant financial predicament and neither will looming crises forwater, waste and biodiversity. By the time this group of sessions concludes, youll havea thought-provoking variety of real world solutions and best practice case studies to takeback to your office.

CR as a business advantage how an increased responsiblebusiness reputation can pay dividendsThe recession has prompted a sea change in publicexpectations of companies. Consumers are currentlymore wary than ever before of unfetteredconsumerism, as these facts reveal: 30% of consumers base their buying decisions on

how responsible they believe a company to be Even though the economy is suffering from low

consumer confidence, ethical consumption has notbeen dented by the downturn

A responsible business is uniquely placed to takeadvantage of this growing trend. Already, the marketfor ethical products is worth 32bn in the UK a figurethats growing. This means that a well thought outsustainability strategy could deliver clear businessadvantage particularly as the recessionary moodabates. In that case, how do you ensure that yourown sustainable business efforts allow you to tapinto this growing market?In this session hear from Tesco and Sony-Ericsson.Find out how they leverage their CSR initiatives to gainthe confidence of consumers.Tesco, Lucy Neville-Rolfe, Executive Director,Corporate & Legal AffairsSony Ericsson,Mats Pellback-Scharp, Head of Sustainability

Reprioritising CSR initiativespost-recessionRecession changes things! How do you make sure youre prioritising your CR programmes to account for the new business landscape? The recession has shaken the foundations of businesses, big and small. The weak have fallen.The strong have been weakened. As companies licktheir proverbial wounds, and make cost savingswhere they can, corporate responsibility projectsthat generate financial savings are looked uponfavourably. For CR professionals now is the time toreprioritise and gain renewed approbation.But what do you focus on The immediate needs of consumers?

Communicating more effectively to gain morebusiness advantages from CSR?

Arcelor Mittal,Roland Verstappen, Vice-President forCorporate Responsibility and International Affairs

Quantifying environmentalimpacts is this even possible?With so many external influences on your total environmental impact, is it really possible to measure your footprint? Accurately measuring your environmental impact haspotentially huge cost-saving benefits, and focusing onthis area makes perfect sense during a recession.But first there needs to be a method of measurement,and there is real concern that accurate measurementof every aspect of corporate environmental impactis an unrealistic prospect. With so many variables many of which are not even under the direct controlof most businesses the jury is out on whetheraccurate environmental impact assessment is possible.This session covers: How to measure the environmental impact up and

down your supply chain Creating environmental key performance indicators

(KPIs) to accurately measure your impact and setrealistic targets

How to incorporate CRinto company-wide riskmanagementGet a birds-eye perspective on risk: How good CSR ensures you have a 360-degree view of your companys exposure

Now, more than ever, large investment houses wantto see that companies they provide capital for have

assessed every risk. Investors are more likely to haveconfidence in a company that clearly demonstrates anunderstanding of the risks its exposed to. Which is just one of the reasons they look for evidence of clear CR strategies. How do you organise your riskmanagement to ensure CR is covered? Do you runseparate risk management teams, or do you carry outa quarterly CR risk assessment run by the CR department?

Different methods will work for different companies.In this session we will cover the methods and engagein the analysis. Discover:

TRACK ONE: The role of the CR professionalStage 2: Taking Action And Implementing Strategy

How to convince the scepticsin your company that business

without built-in sustainability is flawedYou know that CR is vital to the success of your company. But how do you convince your colleagues? One of the most challenging aspects of the role of aresponsible business professional is treading the fineline between wild CR evangelism on the one hand,and unproductive timidity on the other. Bang onrelentlessly about the importance of corporateresponsibility and you are likely to lose the respect of your colleagues. Whisper about it so quietly that youarent heard, and your business will never becomeaware of the potential risks and opportunities

that exist in the real world. Convincing colleaguesthat a good responsibility strategy is fundamental tothe successful running, and future success, of anybusiness is therefore a delicate operation. How to contextualise hot CR topics so top

management will want to hear them Use incentives tied to sustainability performance to

enhance employee engagement Convince colleagues that CR is not just a worthy

cause, but a critical business issue that demandstheir time and attention

EON, Erik Brandsma, Vice-President, Corporate Responsibility

No-one reads your CSR report.What are you going to do now?Changing Sustainability Reporting for the better More companies are abandoning old-fashioned print-based CSR reports. As stakeholder engagement becomesmore technologically advanced, and cost cutting riseshigher on the business agenda, the trend is for smaller,more targeted, web-based CSR reporting methods. Yet, ironically, while the decline of the Sustainabilityreport is in play, so is the rise of CR reporting. InDenmark, for example, CSR reporting is a legal require-ment, and the GRI reports strong annual growth incompanies reporting on their corporate responsibility.Clearly, the area is in a state of flux. In this session,we will examine the changes and challenges taking

place around CSR reporting. Well also look at theopportunities and risks created. Topics covered include: Best report writing practices to effectively target

your key stakeholders Innovation, creativity, and making the most of Web

2.0 technology Making the hard work worthwhile how to

communicate your sustainability message successfullyDanone,Jean Christophe Laugee, SustainableDevelopment Integration DirectorUBS,Christian Leitz, Head of Corporate ResponsibilityManagement

Biodiversity:Should you care?Defining how biodiversity will affect your business,what it means for you, and how you can help to protect biodiversity.

The EU has set targets on biodiversity in 2009 that arecertain to be missed. This will provoke the EU to lookat the issue again, and it is likely that legislaturewill follow. Biodiversity is also high on the publicagenda.But why? As things stand, biodiversity is nota topic relevant to all industries but some industriescan contribute considerably to maintain and fosterbiodiversity. It's worth bearing in mind that this is atopic that some CSR professionals believe will become

as important and high-profile an issue as climatechange.

The opportunities and risks a good approach tobiodiversity offers your company

Lessons to be learnt from high-impact industries onbiodiversity management

BREAKOUT SESSION ONE

How CSR can drive company-wide innovation and changecompany strategy If your business wants to be a leader, it needs your responsible business team to push it forward A correctly managed CR team will be in touch withrelevant communities, and have a unique andunrivalled insight into what stakeholders want and

need from a company. If your CR team isnt playing afundamental role in helping your business adapt towider mood shifts and changing attitudes,it isnt doing its job properly.In this session, hear from four companies that use CSRto inform company strategy with excellent results. Spot opportunities: Learn to identify the key signs Discover how our four speakers go about driving

innovation with the CR department as the drivingseat

IKEA,Thomas Bergmark, Head of Social andEnvironmental Responsibility

Marks & Spencer,Mike Barry, Head of Sustainable Business

Crystal clear or merely opaque how transparent do

you really want to be?With public trust in the government, the economy and corporations at an all time low, is it the duty not just the job of CSR professionals to redress the balance for business? Its a shockingly low figure today, just 6% of thepublic trust corporations to hold themselves account-able for their actions. Trust in business has shrivelled,and business is suffering as a result. In what appearsto be an unstoppable downward spiral of confidence,there is a clear role that the CR professional will play inregaining trust.In this session, we will investigate the impact of damaged consumer faith, and look at what needsto be done to repair it. Is an increased level of transparency necessarily the right way to go?Key questions that will be addressed include: How has business been affected by the loss of

consumer trust? How might better business transparency increase

public confidence? What are the dangers of increased transparency for

established and growing businesses?

How can transparency risks be managed?StatoilHydro, Willy Egset, Head of CSRGlaxoSmithKline, Julia King, Vice-President,Corporate ResponsibilityRoyal Bank of Scotland, Andrew Cave,Head of Corporate Responsibility

How to deal withcontroversy At one time or another your company will make mistakes. When this happens, as a CSR pro, how do you minimise the fallout?

Its inevitable that, at some point, your company willdo something controversial. Just ask the CR team atHabitat. Or Gap. Or Starbucks! As a CR professional,

youll be expected to minimise the short term impactand make recommendations or provisions for longterm improvements. The big question ishow?

In this session, speakers from controversial industriesshare their insight and experience of managingcontroversy from a CR perspective.Theyll tell you:

How to engage with stakeholders extremelysceptical ones!

When to meet controversial issues head on

When to recognise and realise that the battle mightbe lost

Keeping score: How to measureresponsible business progress

outside of the CSR departmentAs embedding sustainability progresses, the role of the CSR department is changing. But this progress oftengives rise to further challenges. Why? As more businesses start to embed sustainability,more departments become responsible for existingand emerging initiatives. And yet the corporateresponsibility team is still ultimately responsible forreporting on progress. So how, exactly, does the CSRpro ensure that other departments are measuringdevelopments accurately and thoroughly? And howshould they go about collecting that data whenits needed? This session will examine:

How to implement processes to ensure thecollection and collation of quality information fromevery department in your organisation

The external systems available to you to facilitatethe information gathering processes carried out byother departments

Ways to ensure you create systems that ensure ayear round collection of data one thats accessibleat any time!

Reducing carbon emissions inEmerging Markets: How to

make cuts in areas whererenewables arent an optionOne of the cornerstones of any climate strategyin the developed world is the use of renewables to reducecarbon emissions. However, many companies haveoperations in the developing world where lack of asuitable infrastructure makes renewables non-viable.In remote areas, for example, energy for business isoften piped in from generators that consume largequantities of fossil fuel.In this session we evaluate how its possible for CRprofessionals to manage carbon reduction strategies in

areas where use of renewables is not possible, or isseverely limited: What types of renewable energycanbe used in the

developing world without the need for advancedinfrastructure

What carbon reduction strategies actually workbetter in the developing world

How should you approach worldwide carbonreduction bearing in mind the vast changes inoperational strategy needed in different parts of the world?
