CSR: corporate social responsibility means the incorporation of social, economic and environmental concerns into business, while taking care of stake holders and creating shareholder’s value. In other words instead of working for only short term gains or profit driven business, the today’s corporate world should be driven by socially conscience and social responsibility.
