CSR Press Release

NEW YORK, Mar. 05 /CSRwire/ - Ever wondered how your team could collaborate more seamlessly with the HR team on a community relations project? Or work as partners with the Diversity team on advancing employee engagement? Ever felt the need for a scorecard that not only measures the impact of all your work but also quantifies the business case for corporate social responsibility?

In the absence of clear and concise tools, how do your CSR, HR and talent recruitment teams work together on furthering the organization's sustainability strategy and initiatives? Do the words "random", "pulled together quickly" and "reactive" come to mind?

Recognizing the significance of these challenges – and the urgent need for collaboration between these important business functions – CSRwire has introduced a new training series exclusively for you and your colleagues in CSR, HR, sustainability and talent development. With a focus on skills building, implementation challenges, and connecting employee engagement with business opportunities, this series will connect you with your peers through the common thread of human capital.

Led by former HR executive and veteran CSR expert Elaine Cohen – along with star CSR and HR executives – and now certified by the HR Institute for 3 credit hours! -- the series will follow a curriculum-based format and attack several critical issues, including:

• The business case for advancing Sustainable Human Resources Management in your business, large or small.
• The key issues that form the CSR/HR agenda and ways of addressing these in different organizations.
• The employee engagement aspects of CSR – what works, what doesn’t work and how to leverage engagement through CSR.
• The measurable business benefits of a CSR-HR approach –quantifying the financial benefit to the organization through implementing CSR-HR tools
• The CSR for HR Roadmap and Scorecard - what you can (and should) do next, and in what order.

Each webinar will last for 90 minutes and focus on how CSR and HR managers can work more effectively together to advance corporate sustainability, do better business and satisfy stakeholder expectations. They will be recorded for future viewing and pre-webinar materials will be available for all participants to enable a real-time discussion.
