Best Practices in Community Engagement (Singapore) 2014

Doing Right the Right Things - Maximising the Outcomes of Your Community Engagement

For companies operating in a country, the license to operate is not a given thing. Building long-term business sustainability requires companies to increase involvement and improve credibility within the local community. With better informed and well-connected consumers, businesses can no longer pass off as being socially responsible by faking it. Instead, the interest of the community must take centre stage and unless there is a clear and real impact on the community, community engagement efforts will be deemed as transactional and offer little potential for gaining unique competitive advantage.

Effective community engagement should deliver benefits for both the community and business. The challenge remains as how to do it right.
