These eight traits provide a roadmap for executive leaders in their planning and strategy development when tackling today’s pressing social issues. We look at how companies can tackle issues from marketing and communications along with their colleagues in CSR and vice versa. The book has case studies, interviews with executives from Levi Strauss &amp; Co., Aerie, Mondelez, Siemens, IBM, Renault and examples and approaches for those just getting started out in corporate social impact work and companies seeking to deepen their current efforts."</p>
