Reasons that business and society benefit each other 
 
A. 
An excellent definition was developed in the 1980s by Norwegian Prime Minister Gro Harlen Brundtland 
and used by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development: “Meeting the needs of the present 
without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” Nowadays, governments 
and companies need to account for the social consequences of their actions. As a result, corporate social 
responsibility (CSR) has become a priority for business leaders around the world. When a well-run 
business applies its vast resources and expertise to social problems that it understands and in which it has a 
stake, it can have a greater impact than any other organization. The notion of license to operate derives from 
the fact that every company needs tacit or explicit permission from governments, communities, and 
numerous other stakeholders to justify CSR initiatives to improve a company’s image, strengthen its brand, 
enliven morale and even raise the value of its stock. 
B. 
To advance CSR. we must root it in a broad understanding of the interrelationship between a corporation 
and society. Successful corporations need a healthy society. Education, health care, and equal opportunity 
are essential lo a productive workforce. Safe products and working conditions not only attract customers but 
lower the internal costs of accidents. Efficient utilization of land, water, energy, and other natural resources 
makes business more productive. Good government, the rule of law, and property rights are essential for 
efficiency and innovation. Strong regulatory standards protect both consumers and competitive companies 
from exploitation. Ultimately, a healthy society creates expanding demand for business, as more human 
needs are met and aspirations grow. Any business that pursues its ends at the expense of the society in which 
it operates will find its success to be illusory and ultimately temporary. At the same time, a healthy society 
needs successful companies. No social program can rival the business sector when it comes lo creating the 
jobs, wealth, and innovation that improve standards of living and social conditions over time.
