When hundreds of corporate citizenship policy makers and practitioners convene next April at The Center's annual conference, they'll explore how the qualities of "real, relevant, and responsive" are integral to practice, drive new skill sets, and define their engagement with communities, investors, employees, customers, and other significant stakeholders.
Toyota is the lead sponsor for the conference, joined by other companies including Accenture, Baxter, FedEx, Fidelity, Kaiser Permanente, Merck, Mohawk Fine Papers, PetroCanada, and Sprint.
