CSR is the new buzzword in business and yes, we’re all on board. But the landscape is rapidly evolving — are your efforts keeping up? And when we dig a little deeper, the real questions become apparent: Is your CSR strategy evolving as quickly as it needs to be? Can your company remain competitive amidst younger audiences?

As CSR champions who are already pioneering the purpose journey in our individual companies, it’s important to make certain that our strategy resonates.

The reality is: Some may be missing the message.

According to a Cone Communications study, younger Gen Zers are less likely to pay attention to a company’s CSR efforts when shopping (58% vs. 65% general average). But that doesn’t mean they don’t care — your message may not resonate. Our CSR initiatives must be loud, clear, and most importantly effective when consumed. As the buying power of younger generations is on the rise, we must appeal to their values in order to win their attention.

Knowing that sustainability and purpose are the new disruptive forces to younger generations, do you know how to effectively harness them?

At Kindred 2020 — the event for sustainable, purpose-led business transformation — you'll be in a unique environment with the top brand, nonprofit, and cultural leaders who will share how their cross-functional teams and resources are making the biggest impact.

Profit and purpose can not only co-exist, but we need one another to multiply our force for good. Secure your spot at Kindred 2020 before ticket prices increase this Saturday, March 7.
