Corporate/CSR
FSG believes the private sector can play a critical role in helping address the world’s social and environmental challenges. Corporations, through their core business and their philanthropic activities, can help address social and environmental issues in ways that strengthen their competitive positioning and profitability.
We serve as a strategic advisor to leaders and teams, offering customized consulting to corporations at every step in their journey. We draw on our experience working with industry-leading multinational clients, nearly two decades of research on innovative and effective practices, and dialogue with practitioners from around the world through the Shared Value Initiative.
FSG brings a mix of analytical support, stakeholder management expertise, and organizational change coaching to help teams align on and execute on a strategy. Our projects include meaningful engagement with C-level executives as well as with the people and communities our clients serve.
We have worked with more than 100 companies, many of them Fortune 100 companies, across industries (food & agriculture, health & pharma, IT, financial services, energy, and retail).
