Boss's Day: "I'm not here to do CSR, but to live it!"

Remarkable initiatives, desire to work differently and virtuous growth have been placed at the forefront to remind us that VSEs are not left out in terms of CSR, quite the contrary! Moreover, it is often at the outset the values ​​defended by the boss which propel the company into a virtuous approach, without CSR being a goal.

VSEs, queens of CSR

During the discussions on Boss's Day, tongues were gradually loosened and finally the observation was unequivocal! Without knowing it, most small businesses are engaged in a CSR approach. Unlike larger structures, here the approach is more spontaneous and closely linked to the wishes of the boss and the values ​​he wishes to uphold.

For Isabelle BAIGNÉ, RIVALIS IDF advisor: “Talking about CSR to a small business boss remains a vague concept. While the reality is quite different. These bosses make their values ​​their mission! They live CSR! »

A jury composed of 4 experts in manager support designated the winners of the following categories who were awarded a trophy to reward them for their initiatives.

I am particularly happy to have been able, on the one hand, to recall the role of the Business Mediator and, on the other hand, to invite the VSEs present to join the National Responsible Purchasing Journey that we are co-piloting with the National Council purchases. »
