ON PHILANTHROPY

• Corporate philanthropy is a reflection of a company’s values.
• A corporate philanthropic initiative isn’t worth its salt if the CEO and its employees aren’t also involved.
• People will see through a false halo. If you aren’t committed to actually making a difference, people can tell. The era of companies patting themselves on the back is over. Shareholders and stakeholders want results. They want to know the dollars are being put to good use and making an impact.
• If you can’t measure it, it’s not worth doing.
