A message from Tina Roche, CEO Business in the Community Ireland

BITCI News - Oct 29, 2014

Drawing on almost 15 years’ experience, we at Business in the Community Ireland have witnessed first-hand a real change in the attitudes of Irish companies towards trust, reputation and being a sustainable business.

Forward-thinking companies know that customers, employees, investors and communities place a high premium on trust, ethics and good governance so our conference will explore how you can not only build but maintain a solid reputation with your stakeholders.

At our Responsible Business Forum on Tuesday November 11th in Dublin Castle, you will hear from companies who will share their learnings about facing reputational challenges. You will also hear and be inspired by companies who have embedded responsible and sustainable practices at their core. Finally you will access critical insights on what the future trends are in employee engagement, consumer behaviour and supply chain best practice.

In this transparent age, consumers, employees and communities can really impact on your brand so there are major opportunities for those who act ethically and responsibly.

I look forward to welcoming many of you at our conference and it will be wonderful to see so many companies in Ireland with corporate social responsibility firmly on the business agenda.

Best regards,
Tina Roche
CEO, Business in the Community Ireland
