Frederick Weyerhaeuser, founder of the firm, realized that a firm’s reputation was the most important asset. Significant increases in housing demand over 1997-2005 had led to an enormous pressure for faster deliveries and innovations in the construction industry. Weyerhaeuser decided to become global leader by transforming its culture and launching the iLevel concept7. Key words: corporate culture, family firm, Weyerhaeuser.

  • The Evolution of Corporate Social Responsibility
    CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS WITH NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS: THE EVOLUTION OF CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Peder McDermott Johansen May/2009 CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS WITH NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZA TIONS: THE EVOLUTION OF CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY Peder McDermott Johansen May,2009 Economics Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the factors that motivate companies to partner with NGOs on the issue of climate change. In investigating these factors several appear to motivate companies to take action: cost savings, brand image, and altruistic motivations. Climate change has the ability to change the way we live and the global landscape. It is important to understand the factors that cause business to take action on climate change so that we can help to slow or reduce the intensity of climate change. I investigate six companies, three who are actively partnering with NGOs (Lafarge, Nike, and Starbucks) and three who are not (Boeing, Costco, and Weyerhaeuser) to determine what factors motivate these companies to either take action or not. KEYWORDS: (Climate Change, Corporate Social Responsibility, NGO) ON MY HONOR, I HAVE NEITHER GIVEN NOR RECEIVED UNAUTHORIZED AID ON THIS THESIS Signature TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page I.
