Social media has emerged as an ideal platform for sharing a company’s corporate responsibility story with its stakeholders.  It’s authentic. It’s continuous. It’s targeted. It’s interactive. But as opportunities to inform, engage and activate stakeholders continue to grow with the changing technology, small businesses in particular can face challenges in adapting. What tools are worth the investment of time? How can compelling CSR content be developed and shared most efficiently, without sacrificing engagement.
