Business & the Do-Gooder Complex - 2011 SchipulCon

Chris Valdez
Chris Valdez

The document appears to be from a conference on business and doing good called SCHIPULCON 2011. It discusses how Generation Y values fulfillment and feeling responsible for making a difference in the world. It also outlines the spectrum of "Do-gooding" in terms of the time, money, and services companies contribute to social causes. The document provides tips for how companies can spot do-gooders, grow a do-gooder work culture, and addresses why companies should care about doing good.
