Instructions for Panel Chairs
1. Introduce the panel at the start and each of the presenters in turn.
2. Each presenter has 15 minutes to complete their talk and 5 minutes for Q&A. Please ensure that presentations do not exceed that limit, so as to allow enough time for questions and discussion, and to ensure parity for all presenters.
3. Each panel must stick to time as we have limited break time. Tell the audience if we are reaching the end of time for the panel, so questioners and panelists know to keep any comments and questions short.
4. Please ask audience members asking questions to introduce themselves (name and affiliation).
5. Panel chairs are welcome to briefly summarise, link or compare/contrast the papers presented in order to facilitate inclusive discussion that engages all presenters.
6. If speakers have their presentations on a USB stick, then please ensure they upload to the PC desktop before the panel begins. In case of IT issues, please find the IT assistant present at the conference or a member of the organising committee.
Please familiarise yourselves with fire exits before convening the session.
Workshop: Meaningful Work at ICSR Berlin
About the workshop
Sustainability has great potential for creating meaningful work and meaningful student education, but it does not automatically do so. To promote Sustainability, organisations often move too quickly move from purpose to systems, and forget how every employee connects (or not) their own heart, task and job to sustainability. In this workshop, we use a research based, extensively practice tested, tool, called “The Map of Meaning to embed sustainability. The Map of Meaning helps to take meaning out of the personal and subjective domain and legitimises speaking about meaning in the public domain in ways that are constructive, safe and inclusive of diverse world views.
The workshop will take place on Friday, 29th of September 2017, in Room C355, between 13.00 – 14.30.

6th ICSR Conference is organized in Berlin
6th International Conference on Social Responsibility, Ethics and Sustainable Business
Theme: People and Corporate Social Responsibility in a Globalized World
School of Computing, Communication and Business
HTW Berlin, Germany
28-29 September 2017
You are invited to attend the 6th International Conference on Social Responsibility, Ethics and Sustainable Business to be held at the School of Computing, Communication and Business, HTW Berlin, Germany on 28-29 September 2017. This is a series of academic conferences that creates networking opportunities for both researchers and practitioners to discuss recent insights on corporate responsible practices in the non-for-profit and for-profit sectors. The conference welcomes scholarly papers and practice contributions on the following topics: CSR and Sustainability, CSR and Business Ethics, Social Media and Grass-Roots Campaigns, CSR and Education, Communicating CSR, CSR Initiatives and Strategies, Corporate Governance, NGO Marketing, CSR in the Digital Age, Reputation and Crisis Management, Ethical Stakeholder Engagement. This conference is an effective platform for growth for early career researchers and practitioners and it fosters a strong professional and academic network worldwide.
Conference theme:
Contemporary research suggests that CSR has become disconnected from people who make it happen. Previous studies highlight the link between CSR and competitive advantage, reputation, communications, stakeholder groups of financial performance, and there is less emphasis on the role of individuals in charge of CSR practice in contributing to the societal good. This conference invites papers that bring people back into CSR research. In particular, we invite contributions that expand current mainstream understanding of the role individuals have in shaping CSR theory, practice, policies, and discourses.
The main topics of the conference, but not limited to these, are:
- People and morality
- Global citizenship
- Citizen’s voice in CSR
- Diversity and responsibility
- Migration and responsibility
- Religion and responsibility
- Emotions and CSR
Applicants should submit an abstract of 300 words in a Word document format via email to georgiana.grigore@csrconferences.org by 15 of June 2017. No more than two papers will be accepted from any author. Only the abstracts of the papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
Offers to run workshops, symposia, poster sessions, themed tracks or alternative events are especially welcome. Please contact Maria Anne Schmidt, HTW Berlin ( ICSR-2017@htw-berlin.de) with suggestions.
