Corporate Purpose Impact
Burson-Marsteller, 2010

As companies seek to demonstrate their social responsibility, many are looking internally, in search of a raison d'etre, in other words, their Corporate Purpose. This paper explores this concept more deeply, finding that it contains something of mission statement, strategy, values and culture, among other elements. Research by IMD ranks different companies, and different sectors, according to their degree of Purpose. It also finds that Corporate Purpose can impact financial performance by up to 17 per cent - an effect to be disregarded at your peril.
