The role of corporate directors is often challenged as stakeholders demand greater transparency, ethical conduct, and social responsibility from businesses. Directors play a pivotal role in shaping and implementing strategies that align business goals with societal expectations. This has placed directors' accountability in promoting corporate social responsibility (CSR) at the forefront of academic and policy discussions. Directors hold a legal, ethical, and strategic responsibility in integrating CSR into core business practices, with their decisions impacting a company's long-term sustainability and stakeholder trust. Further exploration of the extent to which directors are held responsible for advancing CSR initiatives may reveal new mechanisms to ensure they fulfill this duty. Investigating Directors' Accountability in Promoting Corporate Social Responsibility explores the extent of directors' legal and ethical responsibilities in promoting CSR within their organizations. It examines the governance frameworks, accountability mechanisms, and consequences directors face when they fail to integrate CSR into corporate strategy and decision-making. This book covers topics such as risk mitigation, data analytics, and business markets, and is a useful resource for business owners, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
