Una vez en el trabajo, me encontré con que mi empresa, vinculada al sector extractivo, priorizaba la productividad sin tener en cuenta el impacto que tenía en su entorno, tanto social como ambiental. De hecho, en campo, el responsable de RSE dependía del de producción y no lo invitaban a participar de las reuniones operativas. Realicé una reingeniería de la estructura para poner al de RSE al mismo nivel que los demás, a que participara en las reuniones operativas y lideré una capacitación a los mandos medios y gerentes operativos sobre la importancia de la sostenibilidad y cómo esta deber ser incorporada en la Estrategia de la empresa para que la misma pueda ser más productiva y sostenible en el largo plazo.

Une fois au travail, motiver les autres par la courtoisie et parfois le sens de l'humour. Aider les autres quand ils en ont besoin. allez au delà de ce que les autres font pour vous faire respecter, c'est à dire faire et proposer ce dont l'entreprise a besoin pour dépasser ses concurrents

Gerentes como el de Administración, el Legal o el Comercial que, de repente no tenían mucho que ver con la operación, se vieron activamente involucrados en esta campaña que resultó consiguiendo mejores indicadores para la empresa e incorporando la RSC en la cultura de la misma.

In my opinion, working for a cause requires leadership skills and collaboration.

This initiative showcases our commitment to fostering impactful change through visionary leadership and effective alliances.

Organisations, particularly large ones, tend to be really compartmentalised. CSR is one of those areas which can be used to work across organisational divisions and find common ground.

Ethics is not just about outcomes, but also about process. So while it is important to demonstrate your organisation achieves good CSR outcomes (such as CO2 reduction, and community benefit) it must also demonstrate that this has been achieved via ethical means - so for example no modern slavery in the supply chain - including the office coffee!

My commitment to ethical principles has not only guided our company through challenging decisions but has also positioned us as a responsible and trustworthy organization. These efforts demonstrate my readiness for promotion, as they reflect my ability to lead with integrity and contribute to the long-term success of the company.

When communicating with your stakeholders, it is important to remember that they are probably interested in different things.

Being aware of the key issues your stakeholders are concerned about will help to target your communications effectively

Don't just talk about CSR internally – make it relatable. Communicate effectively to stakeholders by asking these questions and making sure to communicate.

Did you develop engaging social media campaigns that raised awareness about your company's CSR initiatives among customers? Did you develop clear communication channels for stakeholders to raise questions and provide feedback on your CSR efforts? Did you organize town hall meetings or community forums to discuss your sustainability goals?

Effective communication is key in promoting and implementing CSR initiatives in our institute.

Primeiramente, a promoção de iniciativas de RSC exige uma comunicação clara e persuasiva para o público interno, como colaboradores e gestores. É essencial que todos os membros da organização compreendam e apoiem essas iniciativas, pois o sucesso da RSC depende da colaboração de toda a equipe. Demonstrar que você pode articular de forma clara os benefícios das práticas de RSC, como a melhoria do ambiente de trabalho, o fortalecimento da cultura organizacional e o aumento da satisfação dos funcionários, mostra sua capacidade de engajar e motivar seus colegas. Isso, por sua vez, pode resultar em maior adesão e empenho nas iniciativas propostas.

Além disso, o seu domínio em comunicar esses conceitos de maneira acessível demonstra seu potencial como líder. Líderes eficazes são aqueles que conseguem inspirar e envolver um público amplo, independentemente da complexidade dos assuntos em questão. Ao mostrar que você pode simplificar temas de RSC e torná-los compreensíveis e relevantes para diferentes audiências, você se posiciona como um profissional capaz de liderar com clareza e visão.

Emphasize how your network has opened doors to new opportunities for your company's CSR efforts.
