The work of social impact leaders has never been more complex, and expectations from stakeholders never higher. The corporate changemaker plays a crucial role in addressing social and environmental issues, both through corporate philanthropy, DEI, ESG, and core business strategy and operations.
The Council of Michigan Foundations, Philanthropy Massachusetts, and Philanthropy New York are excited to partner with FSG to bring our collective membership community together for learning and conversations that cross regions. FSG has worked alongside corporate leaders in a variety of ways and will share key lessons learned about practical ways CSR and corporate philanthropy leaders can prepare for the opportunities and tensions they navigate daily. Recently, FSG wrote about key enabling conditions for corporate changemakers in their piece, The Role of Power: Supporting the Conditions that Enable Companies to Center Equity.
