DR. WAYNE VISSER RELEASES FIRST AUDIOBOOK IN CSR
Dr. Wayne Visser released the first audiobook in CSR and
sustainable business. The audiobook is entitled “The Age of
Responsibility: CSR 2.0 and the New DNA of Business”, which can
be found at http://www.waynevisser.com and iTunes.
The book illustrates the shift of CSR 1.0 (Corporate Social
Responsibility) to CSR 2.0 (Corporate Sustainability and
Responsibility) in the Age of Responsibility. CSR 2.0 is an
integrative model that better addresses issues of social responsibility
and environmental sustainability and its effect to future generations.
Other books Dr. Visser published this 2012 include “Corporate Sustainability &
Responsibility: An Introductory Text on CSR Theory & Practice – Past, Present & Future” and
“The Quest for Sustainable Business: An Epic Journey in Search of Corporate Responsibility”.
Information about these books can be found at Dr. Visser’s official website.
Dr. Visser was the Key Speaker of the First Philippine Conference on Research in CSR
held last September 1, 2011. He delivered a keynote about CSR 101 and CSR Research,
enriching the CSR discussions that include members of Corporations and NGOs as participants.
The follow up to the successful CSR Research Conference will be held this September 3,
2011, 8 am to 5 pm at the UST Graduate School Thomas Aquinas Research Center Auditorium.
This time, the Second Philippine Conference on Research in CSR features Mr. Thomas
Thomas, CEO of the ASEAN CSR Network and the Executive Director of the Singapore
Compact for Corporate Social Responsibility, as the Key Speaker. He will give a Situationer on
