He claims Stonyfield has been able to sustain itself. He talked about this in his book, STIRRING IT UP.<br /><br />I am indeed beginning to blog about the emerging new Sustainable sector, because I believe at least in the US, companies e.g. Stonyfield<br />and Roddick operated from a set of core values that many of the initial people in social ventures did not understand. Roddick and Hirshberg created jobs and did not operate core groups of decision makers that operated for the success of the owners. This is why so many companies are now under fire re: hiring and creating new jobs. But I will say more at my blog.<br /><br />Thanks, Elaine.Lavinia Weissmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420432372656455313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8008724049496903547.post-81235356796093685022010-02-15T23:48:53.819+02:002010-02-15T23:48:53.819+02:00thanks Lavinia, this was an old post from last yea...thanks Lavinia, this was an old post from last year, and Loreal bought Body Shop in 2006. Must have got past your radar, though there was a lot of talk at the time about loss of Body Shop core values, much as there is now with Kraft Cadbury takeover. I believe Body SHop continues to run as a separate entity and reports separatly. Thanks for reading my blog and commenting, and I am please to contribute to the way you are developing your own important initiatives.<br />warm regards, elaineelainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07433863039389159395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8008724049496903547.post-51011943939423935262010-02-15T23:21:24.699+02:002010-02-15T23:21:24.699+02:00Elaine,
Did L'Oreal buy Anita Roddick's ...Elaine, <br /><br />Did L'Oreal buy Anita Roddick's Body Shop?<br /><br />If so is that run as a separate company or included in their CSR reporting. <br /><br />I think your report is thorough and you are really touching on some serious new metrics after your gender post. The notes you make regarding diversity are outstanding.<br /><br />CSR for years has been primarily focused on metrics of environment and health.<br /><br />Now I see you pointing out some valuable new thought. I went to the ISO 26K site this morning and discovered they have not defined the CSR metrics yet. I think this new generation of CSR is going to be astounding.<br /><br />Thanks for writing up your views and what you do. You are adding in a considerable way to what I think about in terms of how to bring empower a new culture of SR and Sustainable Education in local community with a global view in business or any sector.Lavinia Weissmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420432372656455313noreply@blogger.com
