Embed the ethos of community and citizenship

“Stakeholder relationships must be seen as interdependent and positive-sum.”

Management systems must more fully reflect the ethos of community and citizenship—and the inescapable interdependence of all stakeholder groups must be designed into organizational operations at every level.
