Companies can greatly benefit from corporate activism and more and more organizations are looking to impact significant societal problems, authentically. However, it is crucial for them to balance social impact with core values and productivity.   Martin McEvoy, Managing Partner Signium Ireland believes that apart from organizational purpose, there is an imperative for all leaders to lead with fundamentally good values and to look at the human issue(s) first with genuine empathy and the organizational requirements second. He says: “You will find that as well as ‘being the right thing to do’, this is a much more powerful way to motivate all colleagues to contribute to the collective success of any enterprise or body.” Ken Bowles, Global CFO of Smurfit Kappa (a client of Signium Ireland), said in a recent leadership interview: “You can work for an organization or be part of an organization…...You should be able to look back and say I’ve done some good and that isn’t just the top or the bottom line…...it extends to the team and community around you”.

*New Blog* from Diversity Leadership Insights: Inclusion week 2023 In a series of articles, we discuss topical issues facing industry leaders, all through the lens of diversity, equity and inclusion (D,E &I) With this week marking inclusion week and the theme being 'Take Action, Make Impact', we thought we’d pass the reigns onto other business leaders to give us their thoughts on diversity and inclusion, and what action they are taking to bring about impactful change in their industry. Our first blog comes from Scullion LAW. A huge thank you to Urfan Dar, Nicholas Scullion and Doyin Akinola for their time, stories and wisdom. Here's a small extract from the blog: How can National Inclusion Week serve as a platform to inspire legal professionals to take meaningful actions and create lasting impacts? 'Inclusion week will serve as a platform to have real discussions about diversity and inclusion. Discussions about ‘what’, ‘why’, and ‘how’ in the realm of diversity and inclusion, need to be brought to the fore in order to create meaningful change within the legal profession. Lessons that are learned can then be adopted and a positive shift towards cultivating a more inclusive culture within the profession initiated.' Makes yourself a cuppa, get comfortable, (but not too comfortable, it's only a 8 minute read).
