As we cross over into the second half of 2011 I'm reminded of the constant pace of change in our space. With the maturing of CSR (and some will say, the ‘commercialization” of CSR),  the conversation is revolving more and more around the deeper integration of sustainability into business value, strategy, culture and the intersection of CSR with core business lines. I am optimistic as I see a desire amongst our members to marry business success with sustainable business practices and I know many of you believe, like me, that they are one and the same.  However, I am also concerned about the number of companies not yet ‘in the tent’ – we will need broad and deep business engagement to address the sustainability challenges that continue to increase in their impact.
