Social purpose is on the move. More and more companies are adopting a social purpose as the reason they exist but often the effort stops there. Following adoption, companies need to ensure the social purpose is implemented authentically, in collaboration with stakeholders to achieve it. There is often a purpose governance gap, for companies governed by a board of directors.
In this In the Business of Change podcast with SEE Change Magazine, Coro discusses the Canadian Purpose Economy Project and its work to accelerate the transition to a purpose economy in Canada. She explores the growing social purpose business movement, the conditions needed for it to scale, and the Project’s ambition for at least 25% of Canadian businesses to adopt, disclose and authentically embed a social purpose by 2030.
Coro is in discussion with Maple Leaf Foods leader Suzanne Hathaway, SVP and General Counsel, Communications and Corporate Secretary, on best and actionable practices on purpose and stakeholder governance in this podcast hosted by Governance Professionals of Canada.
