Corporate India's responsibilities are not limited to contributing to the nation's economic growth. They are equally responsible for spending the right amount at the right place, for the right cause. Sattva Consulting is out with the 7th edition of its CSR report, which suggests that corporate philanthropy is moving beyond the metros into India's emerging Tier-2 cities and industrial belts. Corporates are now taking their time, thinking what to do when they do. CEO Srikrishna Murthy shares that a combination of factors is leading to significant spending in tier-2, tier-3 towns, outside metros. CSR is moving away from few pockets to different parts of India. Social impact is deeply about the denominator and there are a lot of opportunities to dig in more capital on an annual basis. Listen in.
Gina Rinehart's father, Lang Hancock, is well known as a pioneer of Australia's iron ore industry but few realise Hancock started his mining career on a smaller scale and digging for a different substance – blue asbestos. Hancock and his partner started the mining operation at Wittenoom in the 1940s before selling it to CSR, which mined the area for 20 more years. Wittenoom has become synonymous with the tragedy that unfolded for the thousands who lived and worked there after exposure to asbestos fibres. In this episode of Gina, we interrogate some of the stories her family chooses to celebrate – and others they don't
Jeśli interesuje Cię, jak budować rozwiązania, które nie tylko przynoszą zysk, ale realnie zmieniają świat, jak mierzyć to, co z natury wydaje się niepoliczalne, oraz jak radzić sobie z oporem wobec zmiany paradygmatu – koniecznie posłuchaj naszej rozmowy z Patrycją Radek. Dowiedz się, dlaczego technologia jest tylko narzędziem, a impact musi być wizją. Rozmowa inspiruje do krytycznego myślenia i podjęcia działań na rzecz lepszej przyszłości.Rozmowa dotyczy tego, jak tworzyć innowacje o pozytywnym wpływie społecznym (impactful innovations) w dobie sztucznej inteligencji (AI)? Dyskutanci poruszają tematykę autentyczności, etyki i odpowiedzialności w projektowaniu rozwiązań, mierzenia społecznego wpływu technologii, a także wyzwań związanych z oporem wobec zmian i koniecznością zmiany paradygmatu myślenia w biznesie i innowacjach, aby zapewnić zrównoważony wzrost. Podkreślana jest rola przywództwa świadomego złożoności oraz znaczenie edukacji i wczesnego włączania celów impaktowych w strategie startupów.Jednym z centralnych tematów jest mierzenie wpływu społecznego technologii (impactu), zwłaszcza tych wciąż rozwijających się. Dr Radek przyznaje, że jest to zadanie skomplikowane i dużo trudniejsze niż mierzenie śladu węglowego (wpływu środowiskowego). Podkreśla jednak, że należy zacząć od świadomej chęci mierzenia. Krytykuje dotychczasowe podejście, w którym działania CSR czy filantropia są traktowane jako "działalność dodatkowa". W innowacjach impactowych celem samym w sobie powinna być próba rozwiązywania istotnych problemów na świecie. W wizji Patrycji Radek przyszłość to świat, w którym wszystkie rozwiązania będą musiały być impactowe. Nie tylko nie mogą szkodzić, ale powinny mieć cel regeneratywny (odnawianie ekosystemów).W rozmowie biorą udział:dr Patrycja Radek - brokerka innowacji w Centrum Transferu Wiedzy oraz kierowniczka akceleracji w programie Startup Booster for Social Impact Uniwersytetu SWPS. Mentorka, edukatorka, ekspertka w obszarze rozwiązywania złożonych problemów organizacyjnych i systemowych;Przemysław Zieliński - redaktor MamStartup.
Send us a textEver wonder why some home service brands feel trustworthy before they even quote the job? We pull back the curtain on three simple, overlooked moves that stack trust fast: a brand ecosystem audit, a hyperlocal micro influencer network, and a documentary-style install video that shows the work, the manners, and the finish line.First, we map every place your brand lives in the real world—fleet wraps, uniforms, CSR tone, on-hold music, reviews, email signatures, invoices, social, and signage. Then we prioritize the fixes that signal care: clean, consistent trucks; technicians who look and speak on brand; and responses that turn reviews into SEO. This isn't a rebrand; it's a punch list that makes every touchpoint feel the same, so your neighbors recognize you and risk feels lower before your tech arrives.Next, we ditch celebrity influencers for people your market already trusts: the realtor who knows every street, the PTA organizer who mobilizes a school, the youth coach everyone thanks on Saturdays. We outline a simple value exchange—swag, gift cards, or a free maintenance plan—in return for honest posts about real experiences. No scripts, just authenticity and accountability. If something misses, we fix it and learn. That's how local word of mouth scales without feeling bought.Finally, we show how to film a relatable behind-the-scenes install. Choose an average home, capture van loading, protective prep, cleanup, walkthroughs, and a calm voiceover from your sales lead. These story-driven videos beat coupon graphics because they demonstrate care and craft. Then repurpose everywhere: your website and YouTube, short social clips, recruiting, and weekly series like Meet the Crew Monday and Service Story Saturday.If you're ready to tighten your brand, activate real neighborhood advocates, and tell stories that convert, we've got your back.

Start Small, Do Something | A Conversation with Corinne Grimaldi
Tim Christophersen joins the Internet of Nature Podcast to talk about his new book, Generation Restoration, and why nature isn't a luxury—it's our only home. From his first steps in the forest with his forester grandfather to leading the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, and now as VP of Climate Action at Salesforce, Tim shares why waiting for perfection paralyzes companies, what greenwashing gets wrong, and how corporate pledges can move from CSR to true business resilience.We explore why our ecological crisis is rooted in a 300-year-old worldview, how oyster reefs once filtered New York Harbor daily (and could again), and why AI might help “make us all ecologists,” from smallholder farmers in Colombia to city dwellers identifying birdsong. Plus: the role of imagination in rewriting our relationship with nature, the personal challenge of writing a book with Jane Goodall's final foreword, and why, as Tim says, “Nature is waiting. It's time to come home.”
On this episode of the Jered Williams show, Janet, the owner of Potomac Plumbing in Virginia, shares her journey of building a successful plumbing business. Janet explains how she and her husband, Brandon, started with three technicians and a CSR, but struggled with profitability and lack of structure.

Are press events still a smart comms tool - or just a tired ritual some of us can't give up? Press events used to be a pinnacle of communications activation. The moment you filled a room with hacks, told your story once, and watched the headlines roll in. Or at least that's the fantasy many executives still cling to. The reality? Unless you're a prime minister, president, or possibly Elon Musk, the days of commanding an army of journos with a click of the fingers are gone. Most outlets barely have the staff to cover a presidential visit, let alone your widget factory in Walsall. In this episode we'll look at what constitutes a press event - conferences, launches, visits, stunts and more. We'll explore where they still make sense, and where they increasingly don't. We'll remind ourselves what the media actually want and need in today's disaggregated, always-on world. And we'll talk about how you deal with a leader who wants that room full of media - and you know you've not got a "scoobie doo's" chance of achieving it. We'll try not to moan and mither too much, and instead focus on a few top tips you can take back to the team. This episode is hosted by Matt Young and Andrew Brown. Andrew Brown; formerly Director of Communications and Public affairs at Ageas Insurance, Andrew has more than ten years' experience leading the corporate affairs functions for global, listed, multifaceted firms across a range of regulated and unregulated sectors.

On this week's episode, I chat with Paul Ince, also known as Biz Paul, about his experience running "Marketed Live," an event he started to help build his brand and business and one I attended as a keynote speaker! We dive into the behind-the-scenes insights of organizing an event, discussing everything from finding a venue and selling tickets to the importance of customer service and food. Paul shares how running an event has significantly boosted his personal brand and offers invaluable advice for anyone considering hosting their own event. Key Takeaways: Running an event can significantly benefit your personal brand and overall business reputation, even if it's not a huge money-maker on its own. Prioritize the attendee experience by investing in quality food, excellent customer service, and thoughtful details that surprise and delight. Carefully consider your audience and what they would find most valuable. You don't always need big-name speakers if you provide genuine value. Explore alternative sponsorship opportunities, such as tapping into a company's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) budget to fund initiatives like social ticket funds. It's okay to let go of an event or project if it no longer serves your business goals or personal capacity. Sometimes, saying "no" to one thing allows you to focus energy on more profitable or fulfilling ventures Episode Highlights: 03:15: Paul shares the origin story of "Biz Paul" and how his content marketing consultancy, Like Mind Media, came about. 05:07: Discover why Paul and his friend Tim decided to create Marketed Live and their vision for the event. 09:20: Paul explains how Marketed Live became a valuable asset for Like Mind Media's clients and boosted his personal brand. 17:35: We discuss the unexpected challenges of running an event, including the difficulties of selling tickets and venue issues. 28:06: Paul reveals a clever strategy for securing sponsorship by aligning with corporate social responsibility (CSR) budgets. 37:05: Paul talks about the decision to pause Marketed Live and the importance of knowing when to pivot your business focus.

One of the biggest challenges for those looking to achieve Net Zero is tackling scope 3 emissions, which are indirect emissions that typically reside in your supply chain. These can account for up to 70% of your total emissions and can be quite the undertaking to gather the necessary data to be able to complete your calculations needed for carbon verification. In the final episode of the Platform to Proof mini-series, we invite Jay Ruckelshaus, Co-Founder and Head of Policy and Partnerships at Gravity, back onto the podcast to explain how to tackle scope 3 emissions, how it works in practice and how carbon accounting software can streamline the process. You'll learn · What are scope 3 emissions? · What are the drivers for those tackling scope 3 emissions? · Where to start with scope 3 emissions · How does supply chain engagement work in practice? · What are the benefits for suppliers involved? · How can carbon accounting software help with scope 3 emissions? Resources · Gravity · Carbonology In this episode, we talk about: [02:05] Episode Summary – We introduce Jay Ruckelshaus, Co-Founder and Head of Policy and Partnerships at Gravity, who will accompany Mel on a 3-part mini-series diving into carbon accounting software and the value it can bring. In this final part, Mel and Jay dive into scope 3 emissions, the challenges associated with gathering them and how carbon accounting software can help streamline this process. [02:30] Catch-up on the first part – If you missed the first two parts of the series, catch-up with them here: · Part 1: From Platform To Proof – What Is The Business Driver For Carbon Accounting And Reporting? · Part 2: From Platform To Proof – How Carbon Accounting Software and Verification Combine for Carbon Compliance [03:50] What are scope 3 emissions?: The term ‘scope 3' comes from a document and initiative called the GHG Protocol, which sets out the core methodology by which companies should measure account for their greenhouse gas emissions. It details 3 different scopes, scope 1 is your direct emissions (i.e. fuel for vehicle use ect), Scope 2 is grid emissions associated with purchased electricity or other forms of energy (i.e. energy for offices). Scope 3 is a very broad term and addresses the emissions created by your value / supply chain. This could include things like transportation of resources you require from a third-party. These emissions can count to upwards of 70% of a companies total emissions, depending on the nature of the business that can even go as high as 90%! [06:50] What are the drivers for those tackling scope 3 emissions? Jay summaries 3 of the main drivers: Biggest emission source: For those looking to truly hit Net Zero, they can't simply ignore their largest emission source. It poses the biggest risk to the company, so it's in their best interest to reduce them where possible. Of course, this isn't easy as it may involve swapping suppliers or working with existing ones to make their practices more sustainable. It's not as straight forward as addressing your scope 1 and 2 emissions. Regulation requirement: Scope 3 is increasingly being included within mandatory regulations, whereas in previous years, it may have been a voluntary part of those requirements. For example, the new regulations coming into effect for California in 2026 will see around 10,000 companies needing to report on their scope 3 emissions. In the EU, regulations such as CSRD also require reporting on these emissions. Though these haven't been made mandatory as of yet, we can see that changing in future. Stakeholder requirement changes: Customers and other stakeholders are asking for more evidence of meaningful sustainability action. Supply chain initiatives now are gearing more towards sustainable procurement, which coincides with the rise of CSR related activities. This drive to evaluate your supply chain is being pushed from all directions. [09:55] Where to start with scope 3 emissions: Likely stating the obvious, but ensure you have addressed your scope 1 and 2 emissions first. When looking to your scope 3 emissions, you'll first need to determine which of the 15 emission categories is going to be important for your business to get a handle on. The nature of your business will determine which of the categories are a priority, so if you're a digital service based business, then the raw materials category likely won't be very appliable to you so you'd only need to provide a very high-level summary of any related emissions. For those categories that are a priority, you should identify how in-depth you would need to get with the data analytics, and create a strategy for each of those categories. If you're struggling to start, there are some industry average statistics out there to help you with those initial calculations. It's key to set up a defined measurement cycle, that will need the ability to get more granular as you progress. This is so you can actively track your reduction efforts. Of course, the level of this will be determined by the resource you and your suppliers have to help facilitate the process. It's definitely worth investing in your supplier relationships to make this process run smoothly year on year. Some business that have say 100+ suppliers will often send out a survey to obtain this data, but the quality of the information returned (if any) can be lacking. So, a more direct approach will likely reap the results you're after. Mel highlights an instance where an organisation had an engagement programme, where they selected 100 of their suppliers and provided training and guidance on understanding and reporting on their emissions. The suppliers could then see how beneficial the process was not just for that organisations, but for their own company as well. It's more than just gathering data, it's about effecting your sphere of influence for meaningful change. [14:15] How does supply chain engagement work in practice? As mentioned, one of the ways many organisations have opted to gather data have been through supplier surveys, however, you need to supplement this with other supplier initiatives to get the best results. Gravity took a more empathetic approach, by looking at this process from the suppliers perspective. They highlighted that this should just be an extractive exercise, the supplier should also be getting something out of this. One such way to do so would be to give them training and / or tools in order to measure their emissions so they can give you the data you need, and also have that data to share with their other customers. You can work with them to identify potential emission reductions and energy saving schemes that could save them money down the line. There are also a number of AI tools that can comb the web and look for any public carbon disclosures or ESG reports that suppliers may have already made. So this saves on the initial outreach and results in less burden for both parties. [17:10] What are the benefits for suppliers involved? By adding further requirements to your supplier relationship, it offers the opportunity to evaluate and develop your supplier engagement strategy. The suppliers can benefit both from your experience with carbon reporting, in addition to gaining access to the same tools you use to manage this. By helping them get a jump start on their carbon disclosures, they can benefits from being ahead of the curve if certain regulations haven't effected them yet. We're seeing these sustainability regulations trickle down to new sectors and smaller companies, so them having the data ready puts them at a great advantage. They can also potentially optimise their own processes and save money from the experience by using their data to identify where further reductions can be made. Those supplier reductions then benefit your organisation as your scope 3 emissions improve, it's a win win situation. [20:35] How can carbon accounting software help with scope 3 emissions? Using Gravity as an example, they've built a lot of tools that can take raw inventory and gather a lot of data concerning purchasing, logistics ect. This is all collated into one area where it can be analysed and used for calculations. They also have an AI agent that can comb the web for specific information that your suppliers may have publicly disclosed. An AI agent can also reach out directly to suppliers for further information which will be collated within your centralised system, checked for accuracy and put into a format that's ready for reporting. This is all done with a full audit trail for transparency. If you'd like to learn more about Gravity and how their energy and carbon accounting software can help you, check out their website.

Send us a textFeeling trapped in the Google advertising hamster wheel? You're not alone. As contractors face rising ad costs and diminishing returns from traditional search marketing, many are desperately seeking alternatives—but fear venturing into unfamiliar territory.This episode dismantles the myths surrounding lead aggregation platforms like Yelp, Thumbtack, Angie, and Nextdoor. Rather than dismissing these platforms based on outdated perceptions or single negative experiences, we explore how they function as digital versions of neighborhood referrals—connecting homeowners seeking trusted service providers with qualified contractors.Nick Miller of Viral joins Crystal to share game-changing insights about what makes these platforms work. The conversation reveals that success hinges on three critical factors: patience (giving platforms enough time to show consistent results), speed-to-lead (responding within 60 seconds, not minutes), and proper budget allocation (understanding the threshold for meaningful participation in your specific market).What emerges is a compelling case for diversification. While no platform delivers perfect leads every time, incorporating these lead sources into a holistic marketing strategy creates stability when viewed over time. The discussion addresses common operational hurdles, like CSR training and response protocols, while providing practical metrics to evaluate performance beyond simple revenue tracking.Whether you're struggling with Google's rising costs or simply looking to expand your lead generation approach, this episode offers a fresh perspective on often-overlooked opportunities. By approaching these platforms with realistic expectations and strategic implementation, contractors can break free from single-source dependency and build more sustainable growth.Ready to rethink your lead generation strategy?

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a global leader in IT services, consulting, and business solutions, which operates a Global Delivery Centre in Ireland, has been featured in a report that advocates for and puts emphasis on marketing as a function to lead the charge on achieving sustainability goals. 'CMO Blueprint for Sustainable Growth' interviewed Chief Marketing Officers (CMOs) across sectors and identified 10 case studies that demonstrate the various ways in which brand custodians have furthered the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals of companies. The study spotlights ReScore, a cloud-based app that helps sporting event organisers measure and reduce their impact on the environment year on year. Commissioned by the Council for Responsible Sport, ReScore was developed by TCS as part of its broader commitment to advancing sustainable practices and climate-conscious innovation as part of the company's CSR initiative 'Sadhana SamarpaN'. Sadhana's vision of 'Only One Liveable Pl'A'net - with No Plan B: Live Sustainably, Leave No One Behind' calls for both individual and collective action across the eight Sustainable Development Goals. ReScore is among the ten interventions by large corporates in driving the adoption of responsible practices in terms of climate change and undertaking green initiatives. The report draws attention to the efforts of the TCS team in building the framework for ReScore, collaborating with cross-functional internal and external stakeholders and championing the integration of the app in other partner events and the wider sports ecosystem. The study says that TCS demonstrates how responsible marketing, and technology can drive meaningful and measurable change. Abhinav Kumar, Chief Marketing Officer, Tata Consultancy Services, said, "We are immensely proud to be featured in this report that highlights the pivotal role of marketing, communications, media, brand strategy, and innovation in achieving sustainable growth. This recognition is a testament to our commitment to driving positive change through innovative solutions like ReScore. It is true that CMOs are uniquely positioned in helping drive societal change. Marketing leaders can change perceptions, reshape behaviour and prioritise creating long-term value for the community without losing focus on business goals. At TCS, we believe that marketing is a powerful force for good, and we are dedicated to continuing our journey towards a more sustainable future." The report reveals that while 91 per cent of CEOs believe their role includes protecting the communities in which they operate, and 70 per cent see it as their responsibility to speak out on pressing societal issues, they are stretched thin and need their executive teams - especially their CMOs - to meet these rising expectations. This calls for the marketing function to move from intention to action - from storytelling to 'storydoing'. The company, which supports 14 major running events globally, believes that sponsorships are not just about visibility - they are an opportunity to support and become responsible members of these local communities. Developing ReScore is part of TCS' commitment to bringing rigorous measurement and accountability to this multi-billion-dollar sector. Anupam Singhal, President - Manufacturing, TCS, said, "The ReScore app being featured in the UN Global Compact's CMO Blueprint for Sustainable Growth is a meaningful recognition of our commitment to sustainability through purposeful innovation.

Send me a messageIn this week's episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I'm bringing you a replay of my conversation with Rhea Rakshit, VP of Product at Sayari. While I'm away on holidays, it felt like the perfect time to revisit one of the most insightful discussions we've had this year, on ESG, supply chain transparency, and the shift from “tick-the-box” CSR to something far more strategic and impactful.Rhea and I unpack how regulation is reshaping corporate behaviour, forcing ESG out of the sidelines and into the core of business strategy. She explains why ownership of ESG can't sit in a silo, it needs cross-functional alignment, from procurement to compliance to operations. A key theme we explore is the balance between scope and scale: start small, win trust, then expand. Trying to boil the ocean from day one is a recipe for inertia.We also dive into what true visibility looks like in supply chains. It's not just about mapping suppliers, it's about tracing to raw materials, exposing risks like forced labour, deforestation, and climate impacts, and most importantly, creating data that is decision-ready. Rhea argues that the real test of ESG isn't reporting, it's remediation. If a supplier is found to be linked to harmful practices, what happens next? Do companies walk away, or work to improve conditions? That's where the real impact lies.We bring in perspectives from the Global South too, where the social dimension of ESG is often most acute, and Rhea shares why, despite the challenges, she's optimistic about the ability of businesses to build resilient, transparent, and ethical supply chains.If you're looking to understand how ESG in supply chains is evolving, from compliance headache to strategic advantage, this episode is well worth your time.Listen now and let me know what you think.#SustainableSupplyChain #ESG #SupplyChainTransparency #ForcedLabour #Deforestation #SustainabilityElevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

In this episode of The Self-Employed Life, I had the great pleasure of speaking with occupational health psychologist Dr. Christina Guthier, author of Joyfully Exhausted, about the often misunderstood concept of burnout. We discuss the idea that not all exhaustion is bad, explore the difference between joyful and harmful exhaustion, and examine the effort-reward imbalance that many self-employed people face. Christina emphasizes the importance of managing our energy and recovering from hidden efforts we may not even realize are draining us. Our conversation is a refreshing reminder that it's okay — and even healthy — to love your work, as long as you prioritize recovery and recognize your limits. Since childhood, Christina was fascinated to observe different states of exhaustion in adults after work (including unpaid care work). At Ruhr-University Bochum, she majored in organizational psychology, conducted corporate social responsibility (CSR) field-research as student assistant at the marketing department, and worked at eligo GmbH where she helped develop recruiting software. During her M.Sc. Psychology at Heidelberg University, she majored in Organizational Behaviour and Adaptive Cognition learning a lot about the complexity of performance ratings and leadership behavior as well as cognitive biases and decision heuristics. At the same time, Christina also completed her train-the-trainer certificate during her internship at the career services and development department at Mannheim Business School. Then she focused on occupational health psychology (particularly on burnout research) during her PhD at Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz. Christina's PhD thesis on "How to create healthier study and work environments" got awarded with the Alfred Teves dissertation award 2020. Additionally, her meta-analysis on the reciprocal relationship between job stressors and burnout (published in Psychological Bulletin) got awarded with the Schmidt-Hunter Meta-Analysis Award 2022 by the Society of Industrial and Organizational Psychology (division of the American Psychological Association). Finally, as a self-employed scientist, she has started to translate (her) research insights into actionable advice by giving a TEDx talk, getting interviewed for German media outlets (e.g., Der Spiegel, deutschlandfunk nova), and writing articles for different journals and magazines (e.g., Leader to Leader, change magazine). Additionally, she has supported organizations as a speaker, trainer, and coach with shifting their mindsets regarding exhaustion and recovery.
