Unternehmensbürgschaft und Philantrophie

Mit Corporate Citizenship wird das bürgerschaftliche Engagement in und von Unternehmen bezeichnet. Die Basis bildet dabei eine mittel- und langfristige unternehmerische Strategie verantwortungsvollen Handelns, bei der sich die Unternehmen über die eigentliche Geschäftstätigkeit hinaus als „guter Bürger“ innerhalb und für die lokale Zivilgesellschaft engagieren. Bei diesem Engagement können sowohl ökologische als auch kulturelle Belange eine Rolle spielen. Das Engagement für das Gemeinwohl ist dabei heute nicht nur philanthropisch motiviert, sondern hat Unternehmens- und Gemeinwohlinteressen gleichermaßen im Blick. Beim Corporate Citizenship sollte es idealerweise darum gehen, eine Win-win-Situation zu erzielen, sodass sowohl das Unternehmen als auch die soziale Organisation und die Gesellschaft profitieren. Ursprünglich geprägt wurde diese Form des Managements im angelsächsischen Raum als Teil einer Public-Affairs-Strategie. more[...]

Creating Sustainable Value Through Stakeholder Engagement

Prof. Dr. Christof Ehrhart, Deutsche Post DHL Group
Deutsche Post DHL

We are living in an era that has seen the key factors for corporate success change markedly in the span of just a few years. The boundary between business and society is fading, and the consequences are penetrating into the very core of corporate decision-making. A shift in attitude can already be observed in the higher echelons of many companies. Instead of placing their primary focus on shareholders, companies increasingly understand the importance of addressing the needs and expectations of a broader stakeholder base. The shift away from the classic shareholder value paradigm has made way for a new and more sustainable approach: stakeholder value. more[...]

Corporate Philanthropy

Yüksel Holding A.S.
Deniz Sazak, Yüksel

Athletics is not as popular as soccer or basketball in Turkey. Therefore, even though there are many promising Turkish young athletes, finding sponsorships for athletics is not easy. The Yılmaz Sazak International Athletics Meetings (YSIAM) have been organized now for 18 years under the main sponsorship of Yüksel. In parallel with Yüksel’s environmental sustainability strategy, the YSIAM is the first carbon-neutral track-and-field organization in Europe. The organization of the Meetings by Yüksel includes the integration of philanthropy into management processes and business activities. Corporate volunteering is achieved by the employees of Yüksel, who work for the Meetings to contribute to athletics in Turkey. more[...]

We take it for granted and do not consider the road to be a source of constant danger – until suddenly a car accident happens and we are forced to reconsider … and think. Each year nearly 1.24 million people die as a result of road traffic accidents. It means that more than 3,300 are killed on the road every day. more[...]
