Today's Challenges for Business in Respecting Human Rights
EIU, 2015
What's inside?
Business leaders say they accept corporate responsibility for human rights, but their actions don’t yet match their words.
Recommendation
According to the stereotype, global business leaders are cold-blooded creatures who view every decision through the prism of next quarter’s profits. But a more realistic and nuanced perspective emerges in this report from the Economist Intelligence Unit, which finds that most corporate executives feel a clear responsibility to do business in a way that puts long-term ethical concerns ahead of the immediate bottom line. getAbstract suggests this enlightening study to professionals looking for insights into the future of corporate responsibility and business ethics.
