Well, you don't actually need to know much about me but it's only fair to explain a little bit about why I care about CSR and why I'm beginning my blog. I must admit I feel a little shy (why would anyone want to know what I have to say, yada yada) but I have so many thoughts flying around in my head it's probably best just to get them down somewhere, even if nobody ever sees them and they're here just for posterity's sake!
I stumbled across this amazing thing called 'corporate social responsibility' about five years ago now, and have been trying to navigate my way since then - understanding the issues, exploring solutions, creating a career path. None of this has been easy, but I've had a few amazing role models and mentors along the way who have given me so many invaluable ideas and pointers. More often than not when I'm talking to people about what I do it turns into a long and engaged discussion - people find it interesting, yet usually know very little about it.
SO, what I hope is that my questions, ideas, suggestions are helpful for any of you newbies to the realm of corporate (social) responsibility or are merely thought-provoking for those of you who know more about it than me. Please feel free to challenge anything I say! I'll try not to ramble on too long in my over-excitement, but if I do you be sure to tell me to zip it. I have a whole list of topics I've been itching to write about for the last few years, so I'd better go get the first one ready to bare all. Kind of like the pasty British body prepping to peel off the layers in time for summer...
