Leadership

Innovation distinguishes leaders

CSRNews is led by pioneers of ingenuity – global thinkers who revel in making things work better. CSI is our field, and driving excellence is our raison d’etre. Our team brings a fresh perspective to the CSI industry of South Africa. Our emphasis on client vision, trust and the embracing of diverse opinions helps clients see the possibilities in what we offer. They do the work, and we open the doors, reveal the opportunities and inform the world. Over time, we build the capabilities of our clients, enhancing their reach and impact. Together, we achieve results that truly uplift communities.

INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP & PROGRAMMES

Our teams

Our team members have backgrounds in both NGOs and the corporate world, and have access to leading decision makers in South African CSI today. Our experience enables us to work with ambitious and bold clients who want not only to define the future but to live well in the future they are building. Together with our clients, we define ground-breaking objectives and devise CSI strategies that work in the real world.

Leadership Bench

Leadership Bench is a thought leadership forum. On the Bench, we hear from current decision makers heading prominent organisations, who share both academic theories and practical, on-the-ground experiences in CSI. Leadership Bench gives guidance to the industry, introducing new trends and showcasing the best in CSI thinking, so that others may align and increase the impact of their own programmes.
