1. Three Approaches to Corporate Responsibility

2. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
Theory of the corporation that emphasizes both the responsibility to make money and the responsibility to interact ethically with the surrounding community. Second, corporate social responsibility is also a specific conception of that responsibility to profit while playing a role in broader questions of community welfare.

3. The Triple Bottom Line
The triple bottom line is a form of corporate social responsibility dictating that corporate leaders organize bottom-line results not only in economic terms (costs versus revenue) but also in terms of company effects in the social land, and with respect to the environment. There are two keys to this idea. First, the three columns of reponsibility must be kept separate, with results reported independently for each. Second, in all three of these areas, the company should obtain sustainable results.
Three columns are:
Economic Sustainability
Social Sustainability
Environmental Sustainability

4. Stakeholder Theory

6. Where did Stakeholder Theory Started…
The theory began by identifying the stakeholders of a corporation that must be managed carefully…

9. As a result…
Traditionally, managers had an extremely difficult but very narrowly defined responsibility: guide the enterprise toward money. The best companies have been those generating the highest sales, gaining the most customers, and clearing the largest profits. 

10. The idea of corporate social responsibility opens a different kind of business ethics. Morality in the economic world is now about corporate directors sensing and responding to a broad range of obligations, ones spreading through the town where the business is located and then out into surrounding communities and through society generally.
