Imperatives of The Future:

"Business is increasingly aware of this symbiotic relationship with society and of the role that responsible business practices can play in fostering the very stability that business needs to prosper." (Secretary-General Ban, 10 January 2007)

"Social business is important because it addresses very vital concerns of mankind. It can change the lives of the bottom 60 per cent of world population and help them to get out of poverty." (M. Yunus, 10 December 2006)

"If we are to address the legitimate concerns of those who have expressed a discontent with globalization, if we are to make globalization work for the billions of people for whom it has not, if we are to make globalization with a human face succeed, then our voices must be raised. We cannot, we should not, stand idly by." (J. Stiglitz)
