Jacqueline Kirk was awarded with the best paper prize at the 2nd Conference on Social Responsibility, Ethics and Sustainable Business, Bournemouth University, UK
Richardo Wagner, German Public Relations Association (DPRG) awarded a best paper prize to Jacqueline Kirk, doctoral researcher at Nottingham University Business School.
Her paper titled “Organisational Dynamic of a Corporate Responsibility Index” applies stakeholder analysis to map the organisational dynamics, interests and power relations that influence index development, arguing that networks and agency within the organisation and the organisation’s membership have an integral effect on change. In particular, the awarded paper leads to interesting insights into drivers and barriers of CSR integration, and aspects of evaluation and reporting.
