Overview

The increasing polarization within our society presents unique challenges and opportunities for purpose-driven companies and social impact practitioners. Yet, it’s never been more important to keep purpose work moving forward. Employees, customers, and investors continue to make critical decisions based on an organization’s CSR, ESG, and DEI commitments and practices. 

Join ACCP for Advancing Purpose Amidst Polarization: An ACCP Summit designed to provide a road map for corporate social impact practitioners navigating this complex landscape today and into the future. Hear from experts in the field and your peers on how to dial down the noise and propel the work forward. 

Learn the Latest Insights On:

  • Current and anticipated ESG regulations, how companies communicate about the work, and the ongoing backlash. 
  • How the SCOTUS decision on Affirmative Action is affecting company DEI programs, including work with nonprofits on workforce development funding. 
  • Civic and employee engagement in an election year. While some of these topics apply globally, this Summit will have a US-centric lens to the conversation.

Learning Outcomes:

Attendees will leave the Summit with: 

  • A thorough grasp of the political landscape surrounding social impact programs and why companies should not stall their initiatives, 
  • Innovative ideas to involve, support, and encourage employees and customers to participate in civic engagement. A better understanding of the legal and compliance ramifications of ESG regulations and the Affirmative Action decision on current social impact programs.  
  • Compelling case studies spotlighting how other companies are successfully navigating the current environment and actionable recommendations to move purpose programs forward in your organization. 
  • How to have effective conversations at work about difficult topics.
