WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Chamber of Commerce Business Civic Leadership Center (BCLC) today announced the creation of Corporate Citizenship Month and called on companies of all sizes to take pride in their societal work by applying for the Corporate Citizenship Awards.

Corporate Culture Shock: Profit AND Principles

Author

Anyone who pays even the slightest attention to business ethics couldn’t help but catch the scathing op-ed piece by Greg Smith in last week’s New York Times. Smith lambasts his (now former) employer, Goldman Sachs, for a company culture that he says put more emphasis on turning a profit than on respecting and serving clients.

The U.S. Chamber BCLC’s "Conversations with Stephen" is dedicated to CSR insight and trends. Produced and moderated by founder and executive director Stephen Jordan, this six-part series features today's thought leaders engaged  in solution-oriented conversation about the CSR field.
