CSR strategy

Flagship will help in preparing a CSR strategy, with an emphasis on the strategic development of the company. We will draft a strong business case that will target business performance and put your activities in accordance with international sustainability standards and best practices.

For us, corporate responsibility is not just another ‘addition’ but something that needs to be fully integrated into business strategy and woven into the DNA of your culture and processes.


CSR & sustainability strategies

We will prepare a detailed strategy that will be built on your corporate values. This bespoke strategy will profitably balance your financial, environmental and social business performance and will be able to be fully integrated into your business strategies, processes and company culture


Stakeholder analysis

Business performance is influenced by a variety of interest groups such as customers, shareholders and suppliers. We help clients identify and prioritise stakeholders and plan how to engage with them. This includes identifying stakeholder needs, developing appropriate messages, and specifying communication tactics and channels.


Community programmes

We identify the best cause that fits with your brands’ positioning or company’s values and business objectives. Then we create and develop an innovative programme that creates a striking impact to engage internal and external stakeholders. Through strategy and planning, we assist with the programme’s implementation, including helping select NGO partners, identifying KPIs and setting up monitoring and evaluation systems.


CSR audits

A CSR audit is a suitable starting point as it gives a baseline from where we can build and develop an effective strategy, improve performance or communicate success. The audit looks at how the organisation is performing across all four CSR areas: environment, community, marketplace and workplace. We will evaluate your current CSR activities and their impact in terms of effectiveness and competitiveness for the company. We will also focus on market research, stakeholders and benchmarking.


Environmental management system

An environmental management system is focused on monitoring and improving all company activities that affect or may affect the quality of the environment or the health and safety of employees. An effective environmental system will enable you to reduce environmental impacts and increase operating efficiency. We will help you set up an EMS in a way that suits you the most, looking at your opportunities and strategies.


Corporate philanthropy

We identify where companies can make the greatest impact in the community and find the best NGO partner to execute their programme. We facilitate the working relationship between the partners, including monitoring and reviewing the partnership.


Benchmarking

It is important to compare yourself to the market and strive to be the best in your category. Benchmarking is included in our CSR audit, we have our own methodology as well as guiding you through the crowd of standards and indices including GRI, DJSI, FTSE4Good, ISO 26000, UNGC and others.


Employee volunteering

We help create corporate volunteering programmes, along with their communication strategies. We make sure our clients use best practices in their initiatives. We help measure the benefits this brings to their company in terms of employee motivation and their perception of the company, and in terms of benefits for society.
