DEFINITION OF CSR
The definition of CSR used within an organization can vary
from the strict "stakeholder impacts" definition used by many
CSR advocates and will often include charitable efforts and
volunteering.

CSR may be based within the human resources, business


development, or public relations departments of an
organisation, or may be given a separate unit reporting to the
CEO or in some cases directly to the board. Some companies
may implement CSR-type values without a clearly defined team
or programme.
DEFINITION OF CSR WORLD BUSINESS COUNCIL
FOR SUSTIANABLE DEVELOPMENT

“The continuing commitment of business to behave


ethically an contribute to economic development while
improving the quality of life of their workforce and their
families as well as of the local community , and society at
large”
The companies that do not manage their social issues will
not stay in business long term ( excerpt from WBCSD)
ANALYSIS OF VARIOUS VIEW POINTS
& RELATED DEFINITIONS ( Part-I)
 Milton Freidman (1970) made the historic statement that there is one and only one social
responsibility of business – to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its
profits, so long it stays within the rules of the game , which is to say , engages in open and free
competition without deception and fraud

 The argument of social responsibility is based on the Legal recognition view, which asserts that
the corporation is an autonomous entity …owned and run by freely constituted groups…It is not
the creation of society (DeGeorge 1990). Such argument does not take into account :

 There can be a lack of moral virtues among the practitioners of business


 It assumes that there will always be a well –ordered civil society in which business will
operate
 The process of production and distribution less important than exchange, and hence the
actual free market with free entry and free exit and equal sharing of information does not
come into existence.
ANALYSIS OF VARIOUS VIEW POINTS
& RELATED DEFINITIONS ( Part-II)
Like Friedman, Levitt also believes that society is
committed to radical pluralism (multiple vested interests)
and this social, economic and political pluralism can be
best sustained when functional groups do not encroach on
each other’s province of business He says business…like
good war …should be fought gallantly ,daringly and above
all not morally( Levitt 1983).
ECONOMIC PERSPECTIVE OF CSR
The neo classical theory answers the need of the duty ,
rights and justice by accepting that there are public
policies, ethical traditions , and laws that restrain self
interest and will deter individuals from behaving selfishly ,
irresponsibly , or in unjustified manner.
Lindblom( 1977) divided these restraints into authority
and persuasion.
GREY AREAS OF CSR
Frederick (1960) highlighted in 1978 the lack of clarity for
operationalizing such a concept by raising key issues:
 Extremely vague content of CSR
 Institutional mechanism through which this concept is to be
put in operation
 Difficulty in understanding tradeoffs between economic and
social costs and goals
 Difficulty in defining the moral underpinning of CSR
CSR IN CONTINUUM
CSR –one of the protagonists -Simon Zadek(2001) has viewed the
development of CSR in terms of three generations:
 The first generation showed that companies can be responsible in ways that
do not interfere with commercial success. During this phase- the most
prominent change would include adoption of strategic approach to
philanthropy, expansion of geographical focus of the corporate and evolving
measurement tools.
 The second generation is focusing on CSR as an integral part of long term
business strategy (Schendel & Hofer 1979).
 The third generation of CSR is expected to make a significant contribution
to address issues such as poverty, exclusion, and environmental
degradation- as a result of partnership with civil society and changes in
public policy (Zadek 2001)
DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF CSR

DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF CSR
SOCIAL CONTRACT & CSR
CSR is related to Social Contract between Business and the
Society it operates.
Societal attributes are set of generally accepted relationships,
obligations and duties between major institutions and the
people.
Philosophers and political theorists have called this set of
common understandings the “ the social contract” ( Steiner and
George 1972).
Empirical studies suggest – wealth maximization and social
involvement are not contradictory concept( Edmonds and
Hand 1976)
DEFICIENT BUSINESS RESPONSE TO CSR
AS PART OF SOCIAL CONTRACT
BUSINESS HAS RESPONDED IN A VERY FRAGMENTED
MANNER TO THE DEMANDS OF RESPONSIBILITY BY
ENACTING LABOUR LAWS , EMPLOYMENT WELFARE
PROGAMMES , CONSUMER SATISFACTION POLICIES ,
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION ACTIVITIES

BUT THERE IS NO COLLECTIVE LONG TERM IMPACCT ON


THE COMMUNITY –AND THEREFORE IT HAS BECOME
IMPERATIVE TO CONSOLIDATE THE CONCEPT OF CSR
AND FIT IT INTO OVERALL PLAN
RECIPROCAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SOCIETY
& BUSINESS IN THE
CONTEXT OF CSR
SOCIETY PROVIDES VARIOUS INPUTS IN THE FORM

PROLOGUE TO CSR
In today's economic and social environment, issues
related to social responsibility and sustainability are
gaining more and more importance, especially in the
business sector. Business goals are inseparable from
the societies and environments within which they
operate. Whilst short-term economic gain can be
pursued, the failure to account for longer-term social
and environmental impacts makes those business
practices unsustainable.
CSR FROM GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE
 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) can be understood as a
management concept and a process that integrates social and
environmental concerns in business operations and a
company’s interactions with the full range of its stakeholders.
 The Global Compact asks companies to embrace, support and
enact, within their sphere of influence, a set of core values in
the areas of human rights, labor standards, the environment
and anti-corruption.
 The learning materials and tools are available from UN
perspective to promote and accelerate the private sector’s
adherence to the UN Global Compact principles and progress
on the Millennium Development Goals.
PERFORMANCE INDICATORS FOR CSR PROJECT PROPOSAL
DEVELOPMENT (AS PER IDENTIFIED CSR ACTIVTIES)
This practice deals with the subsequent managerial step of CSR
implementation; that is how to best define concrete
performance targets for a company’s CSR initiatives, and how to
monitor whether these targets are being met. One of the key
challenges is to transform the general CSR ambitions into
measurable targets and objectives and to make employees
accountable for meeting those targets. For the measuring of
CSR efforts, a firm often defines a number of CSR key
performance indicators (KPIs) that reflect these targets well.
PERFORMANCE INDICATORS FOR CSR CONTINUED….
When it comes to monitoring compliance with the targets, this
is done through an annual assurance letter process. This
requires the relevant senior manager to report back to the chief
executive on the performance of their business in following the
company’s business principles and standards. Results are
reported to the audit committee of the board. External panels
and observers are used increasingly to monitor performance,
and the results are reported externally in the company’s annual
sustainability report. All together, the successful combination
of defining measurable, concrete CSR performance targets and
monitoring whether these are being met helps to keep the CSR
agenda.

LOG FRAME ANALYTICAL INDICATORS PROCESS AND
TOOLS TO SUPPORT OBJECTIVE ORIENTED CSR PROJECT
PLANS AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION
WHAT IS LOGICAL FRAMEWORK ANALYSIS (LFA)?
A log frame (also known as a Project Framework) is a tool for planning and
managing development projects. It looks like a table (or framework) and aims to
present information about the key components of a project in a clear, concise,
logical and systematic way. The log frame model was developed in the United
States and has since been adopted and adapted for use by many other Donors.
A Log Frame summarises,
in a standard format:
What the project is going to achieve?
What activities will be carried out to achieve its outputs and
purpose?
What resources (inputs) are required?
What are the potential problems which could affect the
success of the project?
How the progress and ultimate success of the project will be
measured and verified?
WHY USE LFA?
Because most donors prefer it?
LFA can be a useful tool, both in the planning, monitoring and evaluation management
of development projects. It is not the only planning tool, and should not be considered
an end in itself, but using it encourages the discipline of clear and specific thinking
about what the project aims to do and how, and highlighting those aspects upon
which success depends.

LFA also provides a handy summary to inform


project staff, donors, beneficiaries and other
stakeholders, which can be referred to
throughout the lifecycle of the project. LFA should
not be set in concrete. As the project
circumstances change it will probably need to
reflect these changes but everyone involved will
have to be kept informed.
A Logical Framework by Department for
International Development (DFID Model)
A Logical Framework by DFID continued…….

DFID describes the Logical Framework as "a tool to help designers of projects
think logically about what the project is trying to achieve (the purpose), what
things the project needs to do to bring that about (the outputs) and what needs
to be done to produce these outputs (the activities). The purpose of the project
from the DFID viewpoint is to serve our higher level objectives (the goal)".

NOTE: The two boxes in the centre of the "Activities" row are not used for
Measurable Indicators and Means Of Verification as the progress and success of
the Activities are measured at the Outputs level. Remember, the Activities are
carried out to achieve the Outputs. These "spare" boxes can therefore be used to
provide any useful additional information such as Inputs and Budgeting
requirements.
CONCEPTS OF RBM, M & E AND BUDGET - TO DEVELOP THE OF RBM
MATRIX FRAMEWORK -FOR SIMULATION TO BE CUSTOMIZED BY DIFFERENT
STAKEHOLDERS'.
What is Results Based Management (RBM)?
RBM is a participatory and team-based management approach that
seeks to:
Focus an organisation's efforts and resources on expected results.
Improve effectiveness and sustainability of operations.
Improve accountability for resources used.
CONCEPTS OF RBM, M & E AND BUDGET - TO DEVELOP THE OF RBM
MATRIX FRAMEWORK CONTINUED…….

RBM approach comprises the following elements:


A results-oriented culture instilled in all staff.
Clearly defined results planned are a) Organisational strategy, b)
Cost centre work plans and c) Programmes and projects
(operations).
Resource requirements linked to expected results through planned
activities.
Programme, project and cost centre results monitored.
Results information used for: a) Management decision-making, b)
Learning from experience and c) Accountability reporting.

MATRIX FRAMEWORK CONTINUED…….

4 Guiding Principles for M&E strategies


Fitting into the overall conceptual framework of the UN system, WFP's
policy on evaluation is guided by 4 general guiding principles:
All WFP operations should be regularly and systematically monitored and
evaluated, in-cluding processes, performance, intended and unintended
consequences and context.
M&E must be built into the design of every emergency operation (EMOP),
protracted relief and recovery operation (PRRO), development project and
Country Programme.
Both monitoring and evaluation need to be responsive and appropriate to
the situation and the operation undertaken. M&E systems should be
integrated with implementing partners’ systems as far as possible.
CONCEPTS OF RBM, M & E AND BUDGET - TO DEVELOP THE OF RBM
MATRIX FRAMEWORK CONTINUED…….

M&E strategies must reflect the information needs and approaches


established by corporate policies such as WFP's Commitments to Women
and the Enabling Development policy, strategies such as the Strategic Plan
and Policy Framework and reports such as country office reports, annual
performance reports and standard project reports. Such M&E strategies
should provide data and results for local and corporate results oriented
management information systems.

The logical framework matrix is the foundation document for both


operation design and M&E. Additional elements of the M&E strategy are
extensions of the logical framework that describe how indicators will be
used in practice to measure implementation performance and results
achievement.
CONCEPTS OF RBM, M & E AND BUDGET - TO DEVELOP THE OF RBM
MATRIX FRAMEWORK CONTINUED…….

What are the Main Components of an M&E Strategy?


The main Components of an M&E Strategy are:
A logical framework.
An M&E plan for data collection and analysis, covering baseline,
ongoing monitoring and evaluation.
Reporting flows and formats.
A feedback and review plan.
A capacity building design.
An implementation schedule.
A budget.
CONCEPTS OF RBM, M & E AND BUDGET - TO DEVELOP THE OF RBM
MATRIX FRAMEWORK CONTINUED…….

In the next table, It describes the main content in the logical


framework matrix distinguishing between operation design
and monitoring and evaluation. It describes how the
content in the RBM results chain is identical to the first
column of the logical framework matrix. Hypothetical
examples of logical framework matrices are included.
 Description of the Main Content in each Column of the Logical Framework
Matrix
 Each of the 4 columns in the Logical Framework is described below. The first and
fourth columns articulate operations design and assumptions, while the second
and third columns outline the M&E performance measurement indicators and
means, to test whether or not the hypothesis articulated in the operation design
holds true.
 Column 1: This column encapsulates the design or internal logic of the operation.
It incorporates a hierarchy of what the operation will do (inputs, activities, and
outputs) and seeks to achieve (outcome and impact).
 Column 2: This column sets out how the design will be monitored and evaluated
by providing indicators used to measure whether or not various elements of the
design have occurred as planned.
 Column 3: This column specifies the source of information or means of
verification for answering the indicators.
 Column 4: This column outlines the external assumptions and risks related to
each level of the internal design logic that are necessary for the next higher level
of the internal logic to occur.

MATRIX FRAMEWORK CONTINUED…….

One of the key aspects of the project has been the strong focus on
stakeholders. A company’s ability to understand the needs and
demands of its stakeholders is a key prerequisite for achieving
high social performance. Successful stakeholder engagement
requires the company to be able to identify and monitor
stakeholders (for example through the support of databases,
and systematic search) and to engage intensely with them.
Stakeholder engagement thus acts as a sensing mechanism to
capture information about the interests and expectations of the
society in which the firm exists.
CONCEPTS OF RBM, M & E AND BUDGET - TO DEVELOP THE OF RBM
MATRIX FRAMEWORK CONTINUED…….
Among nearly all the participants, it has been found some
sophisticated approaches for identifying and monitoring
stakeholders. For example, energy company GENERATOR makes a
conscious effort to engage with its interest groups and has
developed a set of channels for dialogue and two-way
communication. Similarly, POWER, the other energy company,
has introduced a process to identify and monitor stakeholders. For
eight groups of stake-holders POWER analyzes 38 areas of
interest monitoring its performance against specific indicators.
POWER has also created a specific unit, the Interest Group
Relations Unit, responsible for managing stakeholder demands
and for maintaining good relations.
LEGISLATIVE PROVISION OF CSR IN INDIA

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified Section 135


and Schedule VII of the Companies Act 2013 as well as the
provisions of the Companies (Corporate Social
Responsibility Policy) Rules, 2014 to come into effect from
April 1, 2014.
ESSENTIAL FEATURES OF CSR

 Corporate social responsibility (CSR, also called corporate conscience,


corporate citizenship, social performance, or sustainable responsible
business/ Responsible Business) is a form of corporate self regulation
integrated into a business model.
 CSR policy functions as a built-in, self-regulating mechanism
whereby a business monitors and ensures its active compliance with
the spirit of the law, ethical standards, and international norms.
 The goal of CSR is to embrace responsibility for the company's
actions and encourage a positive impact through its activities on the
environment, consumers, employees, communities, stakeholders and
all other members of the public sphere who may also be considered
as stakeholders.
CSR REGULATORY PROVISION
With effect from April 1, 2014, every company, private limited or
public limited, which either has a net worth of Rs 500 crore or a
turnover of Rs 1,000 crore or net profit of Rs 5 crore, needs to
spend at least 2% of its average net profit for the immediately
preceding three financial years on corporate social
responsibility activities.

The CSR activities should not be undertaken in the normal


course of business and must be with respect to any of the
activities mentioned in Schedule VII of the 2013 Act.
Contribution to any political party is not considered to be a
CSR activity and only activities in India would be considered for
computing CSR expenditure.
MEANING OF CSR
• The term "corporate social responsibility" came into common use in
the late 1960s and early 1970s after many multinational corporations
formed the term stakeholder, meaning those on whom an
organization's activities have an impact.

• CSR was used to describe corporate owners beyond shareholders as


a result of an influential book by R . Edward Freeman, Strategic
management: a stakeholder approach in 1984.

• Proponents argue that corporations make more long term profits by


operating with a perspective, while critics argue that CSR distracts
from the economic role of businesses. Others argue CSR is merely
window dressing , or an attempt to pre-empt the role of governments
as a watchdog over powerful multinational corporation.
BUSINESS EHTICS & CSR
• CSR is titled to aid an organization's mission as well as a guide to
what the company stands for and will uphold to its consumers.
Development business ethics is one of the forms of applied ethics
that examines ethical principles and moral or ethical problems that
can arise in a business environment.

• ISO 26000 is the recognized international standard for CSR. Public


sector organizations (the United Nations for example) adhere to the
triple bottom line(TBL).

• It is widely accepted that CSR adheres to similar principles but with


no formal act of legislation. The UN has developed the Principles of
Responsible Investment as guidelines for investing entities.
APPROACHES TO CSR
• Some commentators have identified a difference between the Canadian
(Montreal school of CSR), the Continental European Commission and the
Anglo Saxon approaches to CSR. And even within Europe the discussion
about CSR is very heterogeneous.

• A more common approach of CSR is philanthropy . This includes monetary


donations and aid given to local organizations and impoverished
communities in developing countries. Some organizations do not like this
approach as it does not help build on the skills of the local people, whereas
community-based development generally leads to more sustainable
development.

• Another approach to CSR is to incorporate the CSR strategy directly into the
business strategy of an organization. For instance, procurement of Fair
Trade of tea and coffee has been adopted by various businesses including
KPMG. Its CSR manager commented, "Fair Trade fits very strongly into our
commitment to our communities."
CSV & CSR
CSV received global attention in the Harvard Business Review article
Strategy & Society:

The Link between Competitive Advantage and Corporate Social Responsibility


by Michael E. Porter, a leading authority on competitive strategy and head
of the Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness at Harvard Business
School; and Mark R. Kramer, Senior Fellow at the Kennedy School at
Harvard University and co-founder of FSG Social Impact Advisors. The
article provides insights and relevant examples of companies that have
developed deep linkages between their business strategies and corporate
social responsibility.

Many approaches to CSR pit businesses against society, emphasizing the


costs and limitations of compliance with externally imposed social and
environmental standards. CSV acknowledges trade-offs between short-term
profitability and social or environmental goals, but focuses more on the
opportunities for competitive advantage from building a social value
proposition into corporate strategy.
STRATEGY & APPROACH TO CSR
Many companies use the strategy of benchmarking to compete
within their respective industries in CSR policy,
implementation, and effectiveness. Benchmarking involves
reviewing competitor CSR initiatives, as well as measuring and
evaluating the impact that those policies have on society and
the environment, and how customers perceive competitor CSR
strategy.

After a comprehensive study of competitor strategy and an


internal policy review performed, a comparison can be drawn
and a strategy developed for competition with CSR initiatives.
CREATING SHARED VALUE(CSV) UNDER CSR

• Another approach is garnering increasing corporate


responsibility interest. This is called creating Shared Value,
or CSV. The shared value model is based on the idea that
corporate success and social welfare are interdependent.

• A business needs a healthy, educated workforce,


sustainable resources and adept government to compete
effectively. For society to thrive, profitable and competitive
businesses must be developed and supported to create
income, wealth, tax revenues, and opportunities for
philanthropy.
MEASUREMENT FOR CSR FROM BUISNESS
PERSPECTIVE
The scale and nature of the benefits of CSR for an organization
can vary depending on the nature of the enterprise, and are
difficult to quantify, though there is a large body of literature
exhorting business to adopt measures beyond financial ones
(e.g. Deming’s Fourteen Points, Balance Score Card).

Orlitzky, Schmidt, and Rynes found a correlation between


social/environmental performance and financial performance.
However, businesses may not be looking at short-run financial
returns when developing their CSR strategy. Intel employ a 5-
year CSR planning cycle.
HRM & CSR
 A CSR program can be an aid to recruitment and retention,
particularly within the competitive graduate student market.
Potential recruits often ask about a firm's CSR policy during an
interview, and having a comprehensive policy can give an
advantage.

 CSR can also help improve the perception of a company among


its staff, particularly when staff can become involved through
payroll giving, fundraising activities or community
volunteering. CSR has been found to encourage customer
orientation among frontline employees.
RISK MANAGEMENT & CSR
Managing risk is a central part of many corporate
strategies. Reputations that take decades to build up
can be ruined in hours through incidents such as
corruption scandals or environmental accidents.

These can also draw unwanted attention from


regulators, courts, governments and media. Building a
genuine culture of 'doing the right thing' within a
corporation can offset these risks.
MARKET PLACE & CSR
 In crowded marketplaces, companies strive for a unique
selling proposition that can separate them from the
competition in the minds of consumers. CSR can play a
role in building customer loyalty based on distinctive
ethical values.

 Several major brands, such as The Cooperative Group,


The Body Shop and American Apparel are built on ethical
values. Business service organizations can benefit too from
building a reputation for integrity and best practice.
OPERATIONAL LEGITIMACY TO CSR
Corporations are keen to avoid interference in their
business through Taxation or Regulations. By taking
substantive voluntary steps, they can persuade
governments and the wider public that they are taking
issues such as health and safety, diversity, or the
environment seriously as good corporate citizens with
respect to labour standards and impacts on the
environment.
CRITICISM AND CONCERNS OF CSR

Critics of CSR as well as proponents debate a number of


concerns related to it. These include CSR's relationship to
the fundamental purpose and nature of business and
questionable motives for engaging in CSR, including
concerns about insincerity and hypocrisy.
PROFIT MAXIMIZATION V/S CSR
Milton Freidman and others have argued that a corporation's purpose is to
maximize returns to its shareholders, and that since only people can have
social responsibilities, corporations are only responsible to their
shareholders and not to society as a whole. Although they accept that
corporations should obey the laws of the countries within which they work,
they assert that corporations have no other obligation to society. Some
people perceive CSR as in-congruent with the very nature and purpose of
business, and indeed a hindrance to free trade. Those who assert that CSR is
contrasting with capitalism and are in favor of the free market argue that
improvements in health, longevity and/or infant mortality have been
created by economic growth attributed to free enterprises
FLOW DIAGRAM OF CSR IN VALUE CREATION
CRITICAL VIEW TO CSR
Critics of this argument perceive the free market as
opposed to the well-being of society and a hindrance
to human freedom. They claim that the type of
capitalism practiced in many developing countries is a
form of economic and cultural imperialism, noting
that these countries usually have fewer labour
protections, and thus their citizens are at a higher risk
of exploitation by multinational corporations.
SUSTAINABLE PROFITABILITY & CSR
 A wide variety of individuals and organizations operate in between these
poles. For example, the REALeadership Alliance asserts that the business of
leadership (be it corporate or otherwise) is to change the world for the
better. Many religious and cultural traditions hold that the economy exists
to serve human beings, so all economic entities have an obligation to society
(see for example Economic Justice for All).

 Moreover, as discussed above, many CSR proponents point out that CSR
can significantly improve long-term corporate profitability because it
reduces risks and inefficiencies while offering a host of potential benefits
such as enhanced brand reputation and employee engagement.
MOTIVES & CSR
Some critics believe that CSR programs are undertaken by
companies such as British American Tobacco (BAT), the
petroleum giant BP (well known for its high-profile advertising
campaigns on environmental aspects of its operations), and
McDonalds -to distract the public from ethical questions posed
by their core operations.

They argue that some corporations start CSR programs for the
commercial benefit they enjoy through raising their reputation
with the public or with government. They suggest that
corporations which exist solely to maximize profits are unable
to advance the interests of society as a whole.
NARRATIVES ON NEGATIVE SIDE OF CSR
 Another concern is that sometimes companies claim to promote CSR and be
committed to sustainable development but simultaneously engage in
harmful business practices. For example, since the 1970s, the McDonald’s
Corporation’s association with Ronald McDonald House has been viewed as
CSR and relationship marketing. More recently, as CSR has become
mainstream, the company has beefed up its CSR programs related to its
labor, environmental and other practices .

 All the same, in McDonald’s Restaurant V Morris & Steel, Lord Justices Pill,
May and Keane ruled that it was fair comment to say that McDonald's
employees worldwide 'do badly in terms of pay and conditions' and true that
'if one eats enough McDonald's food, one's diet may well become high in fat
etc., with the very real risk of heart disease.
NEED FOR REGULATORY CONTROL FOR CSR
 Critics concerned with corporate hypocrisy and insincerity generally suggest that
better governmental and international regulation and enforcement, rather than
voluntary measures, are necessary to ensure that companies behave in a socially
responsible manner. A major area of necessary international regulation is the
reduction of the capacity of corporations to sue states under investor state dispute
settlement provisions in trade or investment treaties if otherwise necessary public
health or environment protection legislation has impeded corporate investments.

 Others, such as Patricia Werhane, argue that CSR should be considered more as a
corporate moral responsibility, and limit the reach of CSR by focusing more on direct
impacts of the organization as viewed through a systems perspective to identify
stakeholders. For a commonly overlooked motive for CSR, one may see the relevance
of Corporate Social Entrepreneurship, whereby CSR can also be driven by employees'
personal values, in addition to the more obvious economic and governmental drivers.
ETHICAL CONSUMERISM & CSR
 The rise in popularity of ethical consumerism over the last two decades can
be linked to the rise of CSR. As global population increases, so does the
pressure on limited natural resources required to meet rising consumer
demand (Grace and Cohen 2005, 147).

 Industrialization, in many developing countries, is booming as a result of


both technology and globalization. Consumers are becoming more aware of
the environmental and social implications of their day-to-day consumer
decisions and are therefore beginning to make purchasing decisions related
to their environmental and ethical concerns. However, this practice is far
from consistent or universal.
GLOBALIZATION, MARKET FORCES & CSR
 As corporations pursue growth through Globalization, they have
encountered new challenges that impose limits to their growth and
potential profits. Government regulations, tariffs , environmental
restrictions and varying standards of what constitutes "labor exploitation"
are problems that can cost organizations millions of dollars.

 Some view ethical issues as simply a costly hindrance, while some


companies use CSR methodologies as a strategic tactic to gain public
support for their presence in global markets, helping them sustain a
competitive advantage by using their social contributions to provide a
subconscious level of advertising. (Fry, Keim, Meiners 1986, 105) Global
competition places a particular pressure on multinational corporations to
examine not only their own labor practices, but those of their entire supply
chain, from a CSR perspective.
CORPORATE STAKEHOLDERS & CSR
 The role among corporate stakeholders is to work collectively to pressure
corporations that are changing. Shareholders and investors themselves,
through socially responsible investing are exerting pressure on corporations
to behave responsibly.

 Non governmental organizations are also taking an increasing role,


leveraging the power of the media and the Internet to increase their scrutiny
and collective activism around corporate behavior. Through education and
dialogue, the development of community awareness in holding businesses
responsible for their actions is growing. In recent years, the traditional
conception of CSR is being challenged by the more community-conscious
creating shared value concept (CSV), and several companies are refining
their collaboration with stakeholders accordingly.
ETHICS TRAINING & CSR
 The rise of ethics training inside corporations, some of it required by
government regulation, is another driver credited with changing the
behavior and culture of corporations. The aim of such training is to help
employees make ethical decisions when the answers are unclear. Tullberg
believes that humans are built with the capacity to cheat and manipulate, a
view taken from Trivers (1971, 1985), hence the need for learning normative
values and rules in human behavior.

 The most direct benefit is reducing the likelihood of "dirty hands" (Grace
and Cohen 2005), fines and damaged reputations for breaching laws or
moral norms. Organizations also see secondary benefit in increasing
employee loyalty and pride in the organization. Caterpillar and Best Buy are
examples of organizations that have taken such steps.
CSR Vs CMR
( CORPORATE MORAL RESPONSIBILITY)
 One relevant documentary is The Corporation, the history of organizations
and their growth in power is discussed. Corporate social responsibility, what
a company does in trying to benefit society, versus corporate moral
responsibility (CMR), what a company should morally do, are both
important topics to consider when looking at ethics in CSR.

 For example, Ray Anderson, in The Corporation, takes a CMR perspective in


order to do what is moral and he begins to shift his company's focus towards
the biosphere by utilizing carpets in sections so that they will sustain for
longer periods. This is Anderson thinking in terms of Garret Hardin's "The
Tragedy of the Commons," where if people do not pay attention to the private
ways in which we use public resources, people will eventually lose those public
resources.
LAWS, REGULATIONS & CSR
 Another driver of CSR is the role of independent mediators, particularly the
government, in ensuring that corporations are prevented from harming the
broader social good, including people and the environment. CSR critics such
as Robert Reich argue that governments should set the agenda for social
responsibility by the way of laws and regulation that will allow a business to
conduct themselves responsibly.

 The issues surrounding government regulation pose several problems.


Regulation in itself is unable to cover every aspect in detail of a corporation's
operations. This leads to burdensome legal processes bogged down in
interpretations of the law and debatable grey areas (Sacconi 2004). For
example, General Electric failed to clean up the Hudson River -after
contaminating it with organic pollutants. The company continues to argue
via the legal process on assignment of liability, while the cleanup remains
stagnant. (Sullivan & Schiafo 2005)
CASE STUDIES ON REGULATORY ILLUSION
CSR
 The second issue is the financial burden that regulation can place on a
nation's economy. This view shared by Bulkeley, who cites the Australian
federal government's actions to avoid compliance with the Kyoto Protocol in
1997, on the concerns of economic loss and national interest. The Australian
government took the position that signing the Kyoto Pact would have
caused more significant economic losses for Australia than for any other
OECD nation (Bulkeley 2001, pg 436).

 On the change of government following the election in November 2007,


Prime Minister Kevin Rudd signed the ratification immediately after
assuming office on 3 December 2007, just before the meeting of the UN
Framework Convention on Climate Change. Critics of CSR also point out
that organisations pay taxes to government to ensure that society and the
environment are not adversely affected by business activities.
CSR IN DENMARK- A CASE STUDY
 Denmark has a law on CSR. On 16 December 2008, the Danish parliament
adopted a bill making it mandatory for the 1100 largest Danish companies,
investors and state-owned companies to include information on corporate
social responsibility (CSR) in their annual financial reports. The reporting
requirements became effective on 1 January 2009. The required information
includes:
 information on the companies’ policies for CSR or socially responsible
investment (SRI)
 information on how such policies are implemented in practice, and
 information on what results have been obtained so far and managements
expectations for the future with regard to CSR/SRI.
 CSR/SRI is still voluntary in Denmark, but if a company has no policy on
this it must state its positioning on CSR in their annual financial report.
More on the Danish law can be found at CSRgov.dk
STAKEHOLDERS’ RESPONSIBILITY & CSR
 Increasingly, corporations are motivated to become more socially
responsible because their most important stakeholders expect them to
understand and address the social and community issues that are relevant to
them. Understanding what causes are important to employees is usually the
first priority because of the many interrelated business benefits that can be
derived from increased employee engagement (i.e. more loyalty, improved
recruitment, increased retention, higher productivity, and so on). Key
external stakeholders include customers, consumers, investors (particularly
institutional investors), communities in the areas where the corporation
operates its facilities, regulators, academics, and the media
DISABILITY & CSR
 In recent years CSR is increasingly becoming a part of a large number of companies. It is
becoming an important activity for businesses throughout the globe.

 Basically, CSR means that a company's business model should be socially responsible and
environmentally sustainable. By socially responsible, it means that the company's activities
should benefit the society and by environmentally sustainable it means that the activities of the
company should not harm the environment.

 But currently what we can see is that there is an outburst of enthusiasm for environmental
causes only. For example, controlling pollution, global warming, deforestation, mitigate carbon
emissions, etc. Whereas it can be said that the same enthusiasm is not seen for social welfare.
This is because most of the social welfare activities of the companies contribute to the welfare of
us able bodied people but do not take into account the disabled people who are also a part of
the society in which the company exists and who amount to at least 10% of the population.
Therefore, disability must be made a part of CSR policies of the companies and people with
disabilities must be allowed to become stakeholders.
DIVERSITY MANAGEMENT & CSR
 There should be non-discrimination or diversity management awareness-raising and
training for employees in the companies, that include disability treatment. They
should include the disability factor in employment/HR indicators (age distribution,
gender, contract type, professional categories and/or activity areas, rotation) so that
the situation of people with disabilities can be compared with that of other
employees. The companies should take into account the characteristics of people
with disabilities when managing human resources (recruitment, selection,
contracting and induction, promotion, training, prevention of risks at work).

 Customer care staff training should be carried out by the companies aimed at
guaranteeing appropriate treatment of people with disabilities. They should have a
policy or directive aimed at considering or favouring suppliers and subcontractors
that employ people with disabilities, including Sheltered Workshops.
SOCIAL INCLUSION & CSR
Thus, carrying out business practice which includes
disabled people will help improve the company's
reputation and image in an increasingly competitive
environment.

Finally, disability is one of the factors that can contribute


to "Diversity" and Diversity is a rising value within
companies’ management. However, disability is often
pushed behind in favour of other diversity criteria, thus
disability needs to be specifically included within the CSR.

GENERATING EMPLOYMENT
CONTRIBUTING TO THE NATIONAL EXCHEQUER
DRIVE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
COMPANIES HAVE TO GO BEYOND BOTTOM- LINE
ANALYSIS TO ENSURE SOCIAL, ENVIRONMENTAL ,
AND ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS ARE INEGRATED
ETHICS TRAINING & CSR
 The rise of ethics training inside corporations, some of it required by
government regulation, is another driver credited with changing the
behavior and culture of corporations. The aim of such training is to help
employees make ethical decisions when the answers are unclear. Tullberg
believes that humans are built with the capacity to cheat and manipulate, a
view taken from Trivers (1971, 1985), hence the need for learning normative
values and rules in human behavior.

 The most direct benefit is reducing the likelihood of "dirty hands" (Grace
and Cohen 2005), fines and damaged reputations for breaching laws or
moral norms. Organizations also see secondary benefit in increasing
employee loyalty and pride in the organization. Caterpillar and Best Buy are
examples of organizations that have taken such steps.
ASSESSMENT OF PROFIT FOR CSR
The net worth, turnover and net profits are to be computed in
terms of Section 198 of the 2013 Act as per the profit and loss
statement prepared by the company in terms of Section 381 (1)
(a) and Section 198 of the 2013 Act. While these provisions have
not yet been notified, is has been clarified that if net profits are
computed under the Companies Act, 1956 they needn't be
recomputed under the 2013 Act.

Profits from any overseas branch of the company, including


those branches that are operated as a separate company would
not be included in the computation of net profits of a company.
Besides, dividends received from other companies in India
which need to comply with the CSR obligations would not be
included in the computation of net profits of a company.
GREY AREAS OF CSR
The CSR Rules appear to widen the ambit for compliance
obligations to include the holding and subsidiary
companies as well as foreign companies whose branches or
project offices in India fulfill the specified criteria. There is
a need for clarity with respect to the compliance
obligations of a company as well as its holding and
subsidiary companies.
CSR IN INDIA AS PER THE AMENDEMNT IN
THE COMPANY LAW 2013

BOARD’S RESPONSIBILITY ON CSR
The Board's report under sub-section (3) of section 134 shall
disclose the composition of the Corporate Social Responsibility
Committee. The Corporate Social Responsibility Committee
shall,—
(a) formulate and recommend to the Board, a Corporate Social
Responsibility Policy which shall indicate the activities to be
undertaken by the company as specified in Schedule VII;
(b) recommend the amount of expenditure to be incurred on the
activities referred to in clause (a); and
(c) monitor the Corporate Social Responsibility Policy of the
company from time to time.
NARRATIVES ON THE PROVISION OF CSR
• In determining CSR activities to be undertaken, preference would need to be
given to local areas and the areas around where the company operates.

• To formulate and monitor the CSR policy of a company, a CSR Committee of the
Board needs to be constituted.

• Section 135 of the 2013 Act requires the CSR Committee to consist of at least three
directors, including an independent director.

• However, CSR Rules exempts unlisted public companies and private companies
that are not required to appoint an independent director from having an
independent director as a part of their CSR Committee and stipulates that the
Committee for a private company and a foreign company need have a minimum
of only 2 members.
PROCESS DEFINITION OF CSR POLICY

The Board of every company referred to in sub-section (1)


shall,—
(a) after taking into account the recommendations made by
the Corporate Social Responsibility Committee, approve
the Corporate Social Responsibility Policy for the company
and disclose contents of such Policy in its report and also
place it on the company's website, if any, in such manner
as may be prescribed; and
(b) ensure that the activities as are included in Corporate
Social Responsibility Policy of the company are
undertaken by the company.
PROVISIONS OF FUNDING FOR CSR
The Board of every company referred to in sub-section (1), shall ensure that
the company spends, in every financial year, at least two per cent. of the
average net profits of the company made during the three immediately
preceding financial years, in pursuance of its Corporate Social Responsibility
Policy:

Provided that the company shall give preference to the local area and areas
around it where it operates, for spending the amount earmarked for
Corporate Social Responsibility activities:

Provided further that if the company fails to spend such amount, the Board
shall, in its report made under clause (o) of sub-section (3) of section 134,
specify the reasons for not spending the amount.

Explanation.—For the purposes of this section “average net profit” shall be


calculated in accordance with the provisions of section 198.
GUIDELINES FOR SUPPORT OF CSR SUPPORT
• A company can undertake its CSR activities through a registered trust or society,
a company established by its holding, subsidiary or associate company or
otherwise, provided that the company has specified the activities to be
undertaken, the modalities for utilization of funds as well as the reporting and
monitoring mechanism. If the entity through which the CSR activities are being
undertaken is not established by the company or its holding, subsidiary or
associate company, such entity would need to have an established track record
of three years undertaking similar activities.
Companies can also collaborate with each other for jointly undertaking CSR
activities, provided that each of the companies are able individually report on
such projects.
A company can build CSR capabilities of its personnel or implementation
agencies through institutions with established track records of at least three
years, provided that the expenditure for such activities does not exceed 5% of
the total CSR expenditure of the company in a single financial year.
OBLIGATIONS UNDER CSR
The CSR Rules specify that a company which does not
satisfy the specified criteria for a consecutive period of
three financial years is not required to comply with the
CSR obligations, implying that a company not satisfying
any of the specified criteria in a subsequent financial year
would still need to undertake CSR activities unless it
ceases to satisfy the specified criteria for a continuous
period of three years. This could increase the burden on
small companies which do not continue to make
significant profits.
EXPENDITURE PATTERN UNDER CSR
• The report of the Board of Directors attached to the financial
statements of the Company would also need to include an annual
report on the CSR activities of the company in the format prescribed
in the CSR Rules setting out inter alia a brief outline of the CSR
policy, the composition of the CSR Committee, the average net profit
for the last three financial years and the prescribed CSR expenditure.

• If the company has been unable to spend the minimum required on


its CSR initiatives, the reasons for not doing so are to be specified in
the Board Report.

Where a company has a website, the CSR policy of the company would
need to be disclosed on such website

WOMEN IN CSR
Why the world needs women entrepreneurs?

 Narrowing the gender gap in employment will increase global income per
person by as much as 20% by 2030. But the benefits go beyond the bottom
line. Women business leaders inspire other women to pursue their dreams.
They may also find it easier to balance work and family outside the
traditional corporate world. In emerging markets, women reinvest 90% of
their earnings in their families and communities—which means that
investing in women is an investment in our collective future.

 The world needs women entrepreneurs, and women entrepreneurs need all
of them. It is time to provide the support and tools to ensure that, in 2015
and beyond, women-led businesses flourish.
Women in business 2015 results
Globally, 22% of senior roles held by women is slightly up
from 2004 (19%) but down from 24% last year,
highlighting broad stagnation. Japan remains at the
bottom of the list with just 8% of senior roles held by
women, followed by Germany (14%) and India (15%).

There have been pockets of improvement, however, with


26% of senior roles in the EU now occupied by women –
an all-time high. This has been driven by France (33%),
Sweden (28%) and Greece (27%). At the same time though
the number in Latin America has fallen to 18% - an all-time
low.

Main Concepts of CSR
CSR (Carrol, 1979)
Firms have responsibilities to societies including economic, legal, ethical and
discretionary (or philanthropic).
- See also DeGeorge (1999) on the “Myth of the Amoral Firm”

Social Contract (Donaldson, 1982; Donaldson and Dunfee, 1999)


– There is a tacit social contract between the firm and society; the
contract bestows certain rights in exchange for certain
responsibilities.

Stakeholder Theory (Freeman, 1984) – A stakeholder is “any group or


individual who can affect or is affected by the achievement of an
organisation’s purpose.” Argues that it is in the company’s strategic
interest to respect the interests of all its stakeholders.

CSR Management:
Systems approach

Sustainable business development does not come


about of its own accord. Rather, commitment to
sustainability demands that corporate processes be
reliably controlled and that everyone's actions - in
finance as much as in environmental and social areas -
be coordinated. Prerequisites for this are binding
guidelines, unambiguous corporate goals and a
clear organizational structure.

Organizations use mutually understood vision and values to


guide decision making and rely on collaboration & trust to get
things done.
Concept of compassion & common good should precede good
salary , status, recognition –to get the Visionary Leaders
Only such leaders would be able to create an Organization –
which will help develop unique qualities in every stakeholder-
as every person knows something nobody else knows and such
organizations will have higher chances at success

INCORPORATED
RECOMMENDED STEPS FOR ORGANIZATIONS –FOR
VALUE CREATION THROUGH CSR
 The Organizations should reflect the confidence of its management in the
role play. This means the management of an organization should do what it
preaches an promises or walk the talk.
 It should be consistent in upholding values over the long run
 The Organization should show respect & courtesy to all stakeholders of the
organization
 There should not be any contradiction between verbal and non-verbal
activities of the organization
 There should be a positive & sincere attitude and the motivational should
be fresh and interesting
 There should be a constant endeavour to find a common ground between
the different stakeholders and society at large , based upon emotional
understanding of the close connection between them

CUSTOMER INSOLVENCY
A Client seeks the advise/services of a Consultant to accomplish its
business objectives and expects that the services so rendered will meet
the desired objectives. The issues of selection of right Consultant has
become difficult due to mushroom growth in number of Consultant
available in the marketplace.
Further Client look for value addition to the issue/problem at hand
from Consultant i.e. Consultant must understand the problem in a
holistic way from all the dimensions right from defining it properly to
the smooth implementation.
Therefore in this changing scenario it has become essential for
Consultants to prepare proposal which are –
1. Proposal Presentation (Persuasive in nature and meet the
expectations of Clients).
2. Report Writing.
PROPOSAL WRITING
Need For Proposal Writing
Why do Clients want proposals?
A Client, who is seeking an advise from a Consultant, acts on
the Recommendations given by Consultant in his report. This
may involve investment decisions, changes in present working
conditions and so on. It may happen that the Consultant have
not understood the problem exactly and have given
recommendations, which may have repercussions on the Client
system. Further Client’s personnel involved in engagement of
Consultant in such circumstances get affected. Thus a Client
runs following risks in a Consultant engagement:
a) General Business Risks
b) Personnel Concerns
Structuring And Formatting Of
Proposal

the only constant.
The Consulting Process
Whenever there is a consulting intervention, the client
and consultant undertake certain activities required to
achieve the desired goal.
These activities are known as consulting process.
This relationship has a clear beginning and a clear end.
Between the beginning and end, the process can be
divided into many phases.
The Consulting Process continued……..

There are many ways of subdividing the intervening


process. One of them is as under.
It contains the following phases:
- Entry
- Diagnosis
- Action Planning
- Implementation
- Termination
The Consulting Process continued……..

1. Entry:
In this phase, the consultant starts working with the
client.
This is a preparatory and planning phase and lays the
foundation for everything that will follow.
This phase includes the fist contact, discussions on what
the client would like to achieve, the clarifications of their
respective roles, the negotiations and agreement of a
consulting contract.
The Consulting Process continued……..

2. Diagnosis: This phase is an in depth diagnosis of the


problem at hand.
During this phase, the consultant and the client cooperate
in identifying the sort of change required, defining in
detail the goals to be achieved, and assessing the client’s
performance, resources, needs and perspectives.
The Consulting Process continued……..

3. Action Planning: This phase aims at finding the solution


to the problem.
It includes work on one or several alternatives, the
evaluation of alternatives, the elaboration of plan for
implementing changes, and presentation of proposal to
the client.
Action planning requires imagination and creativity as
well as a systematic approach in identifying feasible
alternatives.
The Consulting Process continued……..

4. Implementation: This is the phase where the changes


proposed start taking shape.
This is also one of the most testing phases because this is
the phase where things begin to happen either as planned
or differently.
Unforeseen problems arise and faulty assumptions are
uncovered.
The original design and action plan may need corrections
and rectifications.
The Consulting Process continued……..

5. Termination: This is the final phase in the consulting


process and includes several activities.
The consultant’s performance during the assignment is
evaluated by both the client and the consulting firm.
Final reports are presented and discussed.
Mutual commitments are settled.
If they want to pursue the relationship further,
agreements are drawn up.
Once these activities are completed, the consulting
assignment is terminated.
The Consulting Assignment

Orientation for Managers on Results-
Based Management
What brought about RBM in the CSR
Increasing pressure on governments to demonstrate the
efficient and effective use of public resources
Declining confidence on political leadership
Globalization of economy
Increased competiveness in the open market
Definition of RBM
A management approach focused on achieving results; a
broad management strategy aimed at changing the way
organizations operate, with improving performance
(achieving results) as the central orientation.
What is RBM?
Approach focuses on getting the right design early in the
process
Implementing the program
Measuring performance
Reporting on results
Learning and changing
Three elements of RBM Cycle
Managing for results is not an isolated activity nor is it
simply a paper exercise. The process of managing for
results begins with the design of the of a policy, program
or initiative and evolves over time
1. Planning and design
 Set outcomes
 Consider alternatives
 Incorporate evidence into improving program

2. Responsiveness and Accountability


 Implement program
 Collect information
 Analyze data
 Measure performance
 Report performance

3. Continuous learning and improvement


 Develop solutions
 Implement solutions
 Adjust program
 Monitor program
Continuum of Results-Measurement
At the core of results-based management is performance
measurement

Performance measurement is an iterative process.


Feedback and review are critical parts of the process
Continuum of Results-Measurement continued…..

If you do not measure results, you can not tell


success from failure
If you can not see success, you can not
reward it
If you can not reward success, you are probably
rewarding failure
If you can not see success, you can not learn
from it
If you can not recognize failure, you can not
correct it
If you can demonstrate results, you can win
public support
Keys to Success
Leadership

Evaluation culture

Responsibility for results

Management systems and processes

Knowledge, skills, capacity


What is a Profile
1. Origin of policy, program, initiative
2. Delivery Approach
3. Resources
4. Primary intended clients
5. Planned results/ Final outcomes
6. Governance structure
The profile provides a clear understanding of what the
program is intended to achieve as well as an appreciation
for how it intends to do so by:

Clearly stating the context


Enabling reader to understand the chain of activities
though outputs that are necessary to achieve the intended
outcome
Logic Model
A methodology for conceptualizing projects and an
analytic tool that has the power to communicate complex
project clearly
Diagram picture which shows how products and services
leads to expected results
A roadmap that describes the links between between
program activities and impact on clients
Description of how a program theoretically works
Identifying a good logic model
Is it logical?
Does it demonstrate cause-effect relationship between
activities, outputs, and outcomes?
Does it have validity
Does the program staff agree with the logic model?
Is it simple?
Is it reasonably accurate depiction of the program, policy
or initiative
Does it build on, or is situated in relation to the business
plan or strategic objectives of the organization?
Classic Flow Chart
Results Chain
Spheres of Influence Model
Steps to building a logic model
1. Set the Stage 3. Validate the Logic Model
 Establish a working group Solicit feedback on draft model
 Collect relevant information Consulting, create awareness
 Communicate with and update model if necessary
stakeholders

2. Build the Logic Model


 Working session
 Activities down or outcomes
up
Resource, Reach, Results
Remember
RBM is an iterative process and as such you can approach
the logic model from top down, bottom up and from the
middle. Do not lock yourself into a particular mindset.
Ultimately, logic models needs to capture the internal
logic of your program, policy, or initiative.
If you can control it, then it is an activity or and output,
if you can only influence it, then it is an outcome
Risk vs Problem
Risk is the possibility of something going wrong, a
problem is something that has gone wrong – a problem is a
risk that has materialized.
Risk Management Strategy

Risk analysis is often based on the experience, insight and intuition of


program managers and key stakeholders in the program
Step 1: Identify Risks

 Governance structures  Political (e.g. influence of


 Accountability and transparency government bodies)
 Policies, procedures, and processes  Economic (e.g. international and
national markets)
 Risk management culture  Social (e.g. Demographic and social
 Human resource capacity trends)
Step 2: Conduct Risk Analysis
Define the risk in terms of likelihood and impact
Develop risk matrix to score and rank risk
Identify which risks based on the score require a plan of
action
Step 3: Design Mitigation Strategy

Mitigation strategy are additional efforts that must be


taken by management to lower the likelihood of the risk
occurring to minimize the impact on the program if the
risk occurs
Step 4: Monitor Risk
Frequency of monitoring vary with complexity, size,
sensitivity of the program

“Reporting on internal and external risk areas, along with


performance enhances continuous learning and pro-active
decision making”
Performance Measurement Strategy
Answers the question:

Are we achieving outcomes expected for the targeted


beneficiaries within the set time frame and at a
reasonable cost?

Does NOT Answer the question:


How or Why results were or were not achieved?
Benefits of PM
Provides timely information
Provides managers/stakeholders with opportunities for
self-assessment
Provides on-going support for management decisions
Provide up-to-date information with regard to client
satisfaction
Steps to Building PM Strategy
1. Identify Performance Indicators from the logic model
2. For each indicator , identify the data source, collection
method, timing, frequency of data collection and who is
responsible

Data Collection
Provides information to
Identify conditions for risk and results
Determine effectiveness
Identify areas of improvement
Tell the performance story
Baseline Data and Performance Targets

Baseline – reference point for each indicator


- first formal measure

Target – the basis from which measurement takes place and


improvement begins
- how far you want to go
- always quantifiable
- always how much over how long
“If you do not know where you are,
you will have difficulty determining where
you need to go.”
Harry Hatry
Urban Institute, 1999
Data Collection Methods
Administrative data
External administrative systems and records
Literature review
Interviews
Focus groups
Case studies
Questionnaires/surveys
Expert panels
Comparative studies
Reporting Strategy
1. Identifies internal and external reporting requirements
2. Ensures that plans are in place to systematically report on
results and reporting requirements met
3. Considers information needs
4. Considers potential users of information
Using performance information for
organizational learning
Organizational learning is an integral part of RBM
Managing for results is an iterative management approach
where constant feedback to planning and management
process are important
Based on feedback inputs and activities can be modified
and other implementation adjustments made
By managing for results, you can contribute to organizational learning
and improved management

Similarities between RBM & BSC
Both seek to align the organization behind clear strategic
goals
Both use financial performance measurement as an aid to
strategy articulation and activity planning
Both rely on non-financial performance measurement and
reporting

WAY FORWARWARD THROUGH OTHER


PRESENTATIONS TO FOLLOW………….
Once a proposal has been approved by Client, Consultant
work on the investigation of problem and submits a report
with recommendations.
It has been found that sometimes the recommendations
are not implementable in present circumstances, thereby
loosing the credibility of Consultant and report both. This
has become more so in high impact consulting
environment, different from conventional consulting,
where Client’s expectation from Consultant Report are
implementable recommendations and at the same time
meeting their bottom line business objectives.
A means to convey some information to other.
An organized, factual , objective presentation of
information.
“Organized” since it follows a systematic pattern.
“Objective” means it should not be influenced by
our personal feelings.
Report is a comprehensive document and covers
all aspects of the subject matter of study.

Social Impact Assessment
Introduction
The concept of SIA was introduced in 1969, under U.S. National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), and is required to analyze the effect of
legislation on the “human environment.” The field of SIA emerged during the
1970s, primarily as a response to new environmental legislation.

In India, the EIA and SIA processes gained importance after the tragic
Bhopal disaster with objective to avoid any form of social risk. SIA can prove
to be extremely useful tool. One of the many benefits of SIA is that “it seeks
to help individuals, groups, organizations and communities to understand
possible social, cultural, or economic impacts, or better-still impacts of
proposed change’. (Barrow, 2000)

Today in India, most of the SIA report focuses their study on land acquisition,
resettlement and rehabilitation.
Why social impact assessment (SIA)

To help individuals, communities, as well as


government and private sector organizations so that they
are able to understand and anticipate the likely social
consequences on human populations and communities
of proposed development project
Objectives of the SIA

Analyze how developmental proposals affect people


Identify and mitigate adverse impacts
Enhance benefits of the developmental proposals
Help manage social change
SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT
 Project area assessment – reconnaissance survey

 Preliminary estimate of impacts – category/extent

 Field planning – Team building/coordination planning

 Time and fund allocation


SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT
Step 1
 Identification of the right team
– key personnel
– support personnel
– field team
 Training – Project Management/coordination/financial
management/socio-economic survey/public consultations/land
value market survey/etc.
 Time planning in line with other activities on the project.
SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT
According to New Bill – COMPENSATION CALCULATION

Rural area = (Market Value x 2) + value of assets attached to land


or building + (100 % solatium)

Urban area = (Market Value x 1) + value of assets attached to


land or building + (100 % solatium)
SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT
Step 2
 Gathering the revenue maps of the affected area
 Demarcating the project area
 Enlisting all the properties from the revenue maps
 Gathering all published data regarding the project area
SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT

Step 3

 Conduct the socio-economic profiling of all affected

families – the titleholders’ and non-titleholders


SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT
Step 4
 Conduct the land/structure market value assessment
region wise (or classify your project area into different
zones or regions depending on the land use)
 Gather the Basic Schedule Rates (for structures) and
Circle rates for land from concerned departments
Difference between DPS & PAPS

 Displaced person or DPs are those who are forced to move


out of their land when development project requires land.

 Project affected person or PAPs are those who lose their


livelihood and or assets fully or partially without being
displaced.

 Indirect DPs/PAPs the project becomes operational for


example coal based thermal power plant emits ash that
destroys land and causes health hazard, so do cement plant.
Mines cause dust pollution that affect people's health and
forces them to vacate the original area.

What is Social Mobilization?

•A process that engages and motivates a wide range of


partners and allies at national and local levels to raise
awareness of needs and demand for a particular
development objective through face-to-face dialogue.
•Social mobilization seeks to facilitate change through a
range of players engaged in interrelated and
complementary efforts.
Social Mobilization
An integrative process where stakeholders are
stimulated to become active participants in
social change, using diverse strategies to meet
shared goals
Social Mobilization

A comprehensive planning approach that emphasizes


Political coalition building
Community action

Antagonizing politicians and leaders of the community is the


last thing that we can do in mobilizing their constituents.
Social Mobilization Enhances Participation
of Rural Poor in Local Governance
Social mobilization is the cornerstone of participatory
approaches in rural development and poverty alleviation
programmes.
It is a powerful instrument in decentralization policies and
programmes aimed at strengthening human and institutional
resources development at local level.
Social mobilization strengthens participation of rural poor in
local decision-making, improves their access to social and
production services and efficiency in the use of locally available
financial resources, and enhances opportunities for asset-
building by the poorest of the poor.
Role of Gram Sabha and Public
Information in Social Mobilization
 The Constitution’s 73rd Amendment has made the village council,
the Gram Sabha, into a very powerful tool of social mobilization.
 Many types of neighbourhood groups, health and literacy
programmes, Mahila Mandals (village women’s groups) and the
mass media - newspapers, radio and TV - also play a vital role in
social mobilization at the community level.
 Social mobilization of rural poor at community level will be
successful if directly linked with issues affecting their livelihoods.
 For successful social mobilization of the rural poor, there is a need
for improved access to public information on local development
issues directly linked with their livelihood interests.
 An effective way of doing this is by facilitating free access to
public information on local development programmes and
activities, which has been a critical factor in the success
of Panchayati Raj in the States of Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.
Examples of Successful Social Mobilization
Total sanitation programme in Avanur Gram Panchayat,
Kerala, India
Total housing scheme in Avanur Gram Panchyat, Kerala
State, India
The Janmabhoomi programme in Andhra Pradesh: a
learning model for capacity-building for participatory
local development planning
Social Mobilization
The process is concerned with mobilizing human and
financial resources through five main approaches:
1. Political Mobilization
2. Community Mobilization
3. Government Mobilization
4. Corporate Mobilization
5. Beneficiary Mobilization
Political Mobilization
Aims at winning political and policy commitment
for a major goal and the necessary resource
allocations to realize that goal.
Primary method – lobbying
Lobbying
Lobbying is an attempt to influence the decisions of the
politicians on certain issues. And in our political system,
most of the lobbying is done at the legislative level,
simply because our legislators are the ones who formulate
and amend laws.
In many cases, the act of lobbying may lead to“power
struggles”, because favoring one lobby group may alienate
another (opposing) lobby group.
One actual example of lobbying is in the promotion of the MDGs by various groups. The
campaign for reducing maternal deaths is one of the important issues in our country, but
it caused a major divide among health workers and policy makers. This led to the series
of debates on the passing of the RH bill. And as we all know, the final decision of our
legislators is to pass the reproductive health law.
Community Mobilization
Aims at informing and gaining the commitment of
community leaders as well as local government agencies,
Nongovernmental organizations(NGOs), women's groups
and cooperatives.
Tips On Community Mobilization
1. Know your community well, and understand their
problems and their needs.
2. Be aware of existing health beliefs and practices that
exist in the community.
3. Always listen to community members carefully.
4. Do not rapidly introduce new interventions that
are different from existing practices and beliefs. Take
gradual steps to introduce such practices.
Tips On Community Mobilization

5. Try to analyze community dynamics and adjust to each


situation.
6. Involve the entire community in the program right from
the beginning.
7. Give respect and importance to negative experiences of
the community, if any, and try to minimize the negative
feelings verbally and in your actions.
Government Mobilization

Aims at informing and enlisting the cooperation and help


of service providers and other government organizations
that can provide direct or indirect support.

This is different from Political mobilization, because


government mobilization targets the management aspect
of the government, while political mobilization is more on
dealing with the leadership aspect of the government.
Government Mobilization
Local Health Board
The local health board in the LGUs is an example of
government mobilization. In this setup, the mayor or governor
serves as the Board Chair, and not the municipal or provincial
MD.

Other members
Municipal/ City/ Provincial Health officer
Municipal/ City/ Provincial Chairman on health
Representative from the private sector
DOH representative
Corporate Mobilization

It aims at securing the support of national or international


companies in promoting appropriate goals, either through
the contribution of resources or the carrying of appropriate
messages as a part of their advertising or product labelling.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
Refers to operating a business in a manner that accounts
for the social and environmental impact created by the
business.
commitment to developing policies that integrate
responsible practices into daily business operations
reporting on progress made toward implementing these
practices.
The CSR Pyramid
The CSR pyramid is composed of 4 responsibilities.
Beneficiary Mobilization

Aims at informing and motivating the program


beneficiaries through training programs, the establishment
of community groups and communication
Example: Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps)
Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program
(4Ps)
Patterned after the conditional cash transfer scheme
implemented in other developing countries, the Pantawid
Pamilya provides cash grants to beneficiaries provided that they
comply with the set of conditions required by the program.
Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program
(4Ps)
To avail of the cash grants beneficiaries should comply with the
following conditions:
1.Pregnant women must avail pre- and post-natal care and be
attended during childbirth by a trained health professional;
2.Parents must attend Family Development Sessions (FDS);
3.0-5 year old children must receive regular preventive health
check-ups and vaccines;
4.6-14 years old children must receive deworming pills twice a
year.
5.All child beneficiaries (0-18 years old) must enroll in school and
maintain a class attendance of at least 85% per month.
Key Elements of Social Mobilization

1. Partnership building and networking


2. Community participation
3. Media and special events to raise public awareness
4. Advocacy to mobilize resources and effect policy change
Partnership Building and Networking
 Partnership Building and Networking relies on the concept
of “Synergy” – more than the sum of its parts
 Identification of key stakeholders is the most important
activity under this.
 Stakeholder - group, organization, member or system who
affects or can be affected by government policies and
actions
Community Participation
Participation is about meeting the interests of the whole
community.
Takes into consideration the different experiences, needs
and capabilities of various groups
Mass Media
A communication medium—whether written,
broadcast, or spoken—that reaches a large audience.
Mass Media - Influence
Public understanding
how much attention people will pay
which actions individuals or communities are likely to
take.
The act or process of supporting a cause or proposal
Community health advocacy entails advocacy by a
community around issues related to health, however that
community is defined or formed.
