Putting money in poorest pockets
Purpose – This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting‐edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach – This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings – It is businesses, not governments, which often have the power, potential and ideas to lead the attack on world poverty, create jobs where skills are lacking, clean up the environment, eradicate disease, and facilitate education. Ironically, bottom lines could benefit from recognizing our moral obligation to help those in need. Practical implications – The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations. Originality/value – The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy‐to‐digest format.
