  7. Corporate Social Responsibility Challenges Complexity and transformative nature of enterprise-wide Sustainability initiatives: Successful Sustainability initiatives demand an intimate understanding of the business, Sustainability goals and metrics to measure success, enterprise data models, enterprise technology architecture and footprint, effective communications, program and change management, and executive sponsorship Skill scarcity: There is a scarcity of experienced Sustainability consultants in the areas of carbon management, Sustainability reporting, green IT, energy efficiency, corporate social responsibility and related areas. Organizational and behavioral change: Most Sustainability initiatives need to percolate deep into organizational processes. This will require significant employee engagement, change management, education and training efforts. Budgets: Organizations need to aggressively make investments in their Sustainability initiatives while constantly driving ways to lower the cost of ownership and establish clear ROI.

  8. Corporate Social Responsibility Opportunities Align Sustainability with the organization’s core strategy and values to ensure that it is a guiding principle in all initiatives. Build your brand and reputation around Sustainability and improve engagement with your employees, customers, investors, suppliers and other stakeholders. Tap new markets, customer segments and revenue streams through innovative new products and services that are inspired by your Sustainability goals. Manage regulatory compliance needs and risks arising from energy and resources price / supply volatility

  9. Corporate Social Responsibility Example: TATA groups CSR rating framework The Tata Index for Sustainable Human Development is a trendsetting attempt to map and measure the social development endeavours of Tata Group companies The Tata Index is a matrix through which Tata companies can implement, direct and measure the social development endeavours they are involved in. Developed by the Tata Council for Community Initiatives (TCCI), the umbrella entity that coordinates and integrates the various social projects undertaken across the group, the Index brings business processes to bear on the development work done by various Tata companies as part of their social responsibility.

  10. Corporate Social Responsibility "This is not some grand thing we are doing," says Anant G. Nadkarni, general manager, Group Corporate Social Responsibility. "We have adopted a business model to drive social responsibility efforts within the group because that way you ensure a huge network. Also, the emphasis on measuring the impact of these programmes is greater now than ever before. The Index will help structure our efforts and quantity their effect on the communities and people they are aimed at.“ The Index is actually a set of guidelines for Tata companies looking to fulfil their social responsibilities, and it is the third set of such guidelines crafted by TCCI. Established in 1996, the Council came out with the first set in 1997. A revised version was brought out in 2000. The Index is an improvement of the two guidelines that preceded it, and it has been built around the Tata Business Excellence Model (TBEM), an open-ended framework that drives business excellence in Tata companies. Companies that embrace the TBEM concept are evaluated in seven categories, and ranked on the basis of their scores in each.

  11. Corporate Social Responsibility The Tata Index is constructed around the core beliefs of the Tata Group in the matter of corporate social responsibility. These include serving the wider community, protecting the environment, using core competence to help the poor, becoming partners in development, encouraging volunteerism, and pursuing socially sustainable activities. The Index prescribes an 'assurance' process to ensure that the community development projects are measured and reviewed so that they perform in a manner that matches the objectives behind them. This assurance links processes to outcomes and divides the entire corporate social responsibility function into three levels: systems, people and programmes.
