| Description: |
According to a recent McKinsey & Co. global survey, 95% of surveyed CEOs believe that 'society has greater expectations than it did five years ago that companies will assume public responsibilities.' In turn, corporate social responsibility has grown into a global phenomenon that encompasses businesses, consumers, governments, and civil society. |
