Inclusive Business

Companies today face a contested environment, where actions risk retaliation, retribution, or crisis. While employees and customers still expect companies to engage in business inclusion and social impact efforts, the range of opportunities to act openly are narrowing.

In this context, organizations which invest in and uphold inclusive business practices are better able to leverage the full scope of talent that today’s global workforces have to offer, cultivate trust, foster innovation, and deliver sustainable long-term value for all.

BSR helps business leaders understand and navigate rapidly changing business and policy norms—from labor mobility to rapid advances in technology—and connect with peers and civil society partners to share inclusive business practices and achieve progress on global systemic issues.
