CSR Pros Of The Year – John Brock

John Brock, CCE’s chairman and CEO, has long been passionate about corporate social responsibility since joining the company in 2006. As CEO, Brock established an operating framework, which sets CCE’s vision and strategic business priorities—with CSR as an integral component. In 2009, the company rolled out Commitment 2020, which focused on achieving aggressive but attainable goals in CSR by 2020. In 2011, Brock met with a group of 25 key stakeholders from CCE’s European markets and asked for their feedback on what sustainability leadership entails. Their input resulted in a fresh sustainability program, “Deliver for Today, Inspire for Tomorrow.” It was announced in Sept. 2011 as part of CRS in Action Week, in which local communities and CCE’s 13,500 employees partnered with key customers and organizations to clean rivers and beaches, implement local recycling programs and more. Brock’s efforts get results. Last year CCE received the Carbon Trust Standard Award in recognition of its carbon management and reduction achievements—earning the top score out of 675 companies. —SVC

Corporations With More Than 10k Employees

Corporate responsibility and sustainability at Coca-Cola Enterprises begins at the very top. A specially designated committee of the board of directors meets five times a year to review CCE’s progress on the CSR front, and to oversee the allocation of funding from specific CSR budgets. In September 2011, CCE launched a new sustainability plan, “Deliver for Today, Inspire for Tomorrow,” designed to not only reduce negative impacts, but to also actively make a positive difference in communities and the world. CCE determined three strategic priorities: Delivering on CSR commitments in seven focus areas and measuring itself against key performance indicators as determined by the Global Reporting Initiative; leading the industry in energy and climate change as well as sustainable packaging and recycling; and collaborating with partners and stakeholders to determine where future innovations are required. —SP

Everyone went the extra mile for Sport Relief last week dressing up, running, cycling and a cook off. We raised £78 which Duncan and James will double. The prize has to go to Karl though – loving the retro golfing look!
