There have been discussions lately about corporate social responsibility, businesses responding to the current economic climate and social situation. One of the very first things you have to ask yourself as an entrepreneur/founder or as an employer or manager is: What do we believe in here? What is the purpose of this company?
Should all businesses have a social purpose?
When it comes to making a choice about whether or not your company should be giving back, I believe the answer is yes — and there are a number of ways to do that. You don’t have to be a charity, you don’t have to be a social enterprise to do it. Every business and every entrepreneur I believe should look from the beginning to choose a cause you care about, look at the need of the community, look at the need of your employees and team and take action and embed that into your culture from the beginning.
