The purpose of a business is pivotal as it has never been before. It is the intention and aspiration why a specific business exists and how it plans to create value for its shareholders and other stakeholders.
The purpose typically reflects a societal need and addresses the way a company delivers a positive impact to society. The financial results are not an end in itself, but rather a natural consequence of successfully delivering the purpose.
In this Roundtable participants got first hand insight from specific company case studies sharing their journey from defining and creating consensus about their purpose, how that purpose informs governance, strategies and operations, to the way they deliver evidence through their reporting and disclosure about their outcome and impact.
Participants were able to benefit from the case studies followed by an extensive moderated discussion with speakers and peers.
The CCR Roundtable was open to corporate members only. The number of free tickets for corporate members is defined by their corporate membership category.
