Inclusive corporate citizenship
Increasingly, executives understand the potential value that corporate citizenship offers back to the business—but do they recognize how YOUR particular programs advance THEIR goals? Not always. The key to building the business case and gaining buy-in lies in ensuring that your efforts support your company’s business strategy by helping functional area leaders and brands to achieve their business goals.

This session will help you hone your message and give you the tools and tactics to build a network of influence. You’ll walk away with a roadmap to help you clearly articulate how your efforts benefit the bottom line.

COMMUNITY INVESTMENT AND SOCIAL IMPACT

Better together: Profound partnerships to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals
No one organization can meet the ambitious targets set by the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), whose target completion date of 2030 is now less than a decade away.

Join this session to hear stories of impact from corporate citizenship professionals who have collaborated with sometimes-unlikely partners to move the needle on the SDGs that matter most to their business context.

COMMUNICATIONS AND REPORTING

Creating a blueprint: How to tackle your first sustainability report
Stakeholders expect that companies make corporate citizenship commitments and communicate progress toward social and environmental goals.

This session gathers experts who have experienced every stage of the process to help you plan the architecture of your report.

WORKSHOP | Communicating in unchartered territory: The nonverbal and virtual tricks of the trade
Corporate citizenship professionals must be expert communicators, building an internal business case, encouraging participation, interfacing with the community and partners, and representing the company at every turn.

In this interactive workshop, you will learn the essential skill of nonverbal communication, bringing intention and polish to communication—no matter what form it takes.

Speaker:

Nancy Dunbar, Teaching Fellow and Executive Advisor, Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship

SUSTAINABILITY

Accounting for environmental risk
Innovative companies are stepping forward to manage their own environmental impacts with the same operational rigor they apply to other parts of the business.

Here, you’ll learn about some of the internal mechanisms that companies are employing to mitigate their own environmental risk—from carbon and/or water pricing to executive compensation incentives.
