Corporate Community Involvement Experts Share Insights on How to Better Value Contributions and Assess their Impacts

Aug 14, 2007 12:00 AM CDT

On Wednesday, August 22, 2007 from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM EDT, The Corporate Citizenship Company will host a complimentary webinar to present to the US market its LBG USA's Founding Member Program (www.lbg-usa.com), and share how through implementing the LBG (London Benchmarking Group) framework companies are better able to manage and measure corporate community involvement. Be known for what you achieve, not only what you give is LBG's motto. Developed over 10 years ago by corporate community involvement managers in the United Kingdom, LBG has been used by over 100 international companies including Unilever, Diageo, Citi, HSBC and GlaxoSmithKline. LBG provides a standardized framework which interlinks management and measurement of corporate community involvement. As a result of implementing LBG companies are better able to set objectives and identify what measures to track. LBG is also a network for corporate community involvement professionals where they share best practices, discuss common challenges and identify solutions. In response to US demand, The Corporate Citizenship Company is establishing a LBG USA group to meet the specific needs of US corporations. Built around the principle of shared learning, LBG USA is launching with a 'Founding Member Program'. During this 12-month focused program, 10 companies will work together to implement the LBG framework to improve their internal management, share best practices, and obtain a clearer understanding of the external impact and the internal benefits of their community involvement. The group will also take a leadership role in the LBG model's application in the US. The webinar will be facilitated by David Logan, who is the co-founder of The Corporate Citizenship Company and was directly involved in the creation of LBG. David has over 25 years experience in managing corporate community involvement issues for international companies.
