Product Description

How companies can make the world a better place while enhancing their own corporate culture

When Marc Benioff founded salesforce.com, he had a vision to change the model for philanthropic giving. In just five years, in addition to touching thousands of lives, his employees are happier and more fulfilled and his communities are loyal to the brand. In The Business of Changing the World, Benioff, along with 19 other exceptional leaders, share their untold stories of how their companies are making a real difference— and how any other company can do the same. Through their compelling tales, they reveal how giving back to the community creates a win-win situation for both businesses and the public.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally - the Inside Story on CSR!, 1 Nov 2006
By Victoria Brooks (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having spent the last 2 years researching the CSR arena, it is a miracle to find a collection of such provocative, inspiring and well-told stories of the world's biggest corporations' commitment to the community. Each chapter pulls back the curtain on the real story of CSR in a different Fortune 500 company, focusing not only on the benefit to the community, but importantly, on the benefit to the company as well. I have yet to find a resource as valuable on the subject of CSR. It is a must-read for anyone working in a corporation - big or small.
