Via Triple Pundit (Firms With CSR Policy Thrive), there is more evidence that companies which prioritize corporate social responsibility tend to do quite well. Here is an interesting snipped from the post:

“…the studies show that sustainability front-runners tend to create sustained competitive advantage, having outperformed the general stock market by 25 per cent since August 2005. Of those, 72 per cent have outperformed their peers over the same period.”

Take a few moments to read the United Nations Global Compact release referenced in the Triple Pundit post as well: Groundbreaking Studies by the United Nations, Goldman Sachs and McKinsey & Company Show Benefits of Corporate Responsibility.

While perusing our site stats I discovered a site with an excellent collection of links (Credo is listed under Corporate Responsibility). Pablo Halkyard (I assume, based on the title of the page that he is the site owner) has amassed links of blogs and sites covering, “international development, social enterprise, Africa, cause marketing, technology for development, microfinance, philanthropy, healthcare, the environment and corporate responsibility.” Be sure to check the list out when you have a moment.
