Corporate Impact Measurement and Management

Impact measurement and management (IMM) allows investors striving to solve social and environmental problems know “what works and what does not.” The corporate context, however, adds a distinct new layer to this approach. The relationship between corporate social investors (CSIs, i.e., corporate foundations, impact funds, CSR and Corporate Citizenship teams) and their parent company is a nuanced dynamic, with compelling effects on the ‘management’ aspect of IMM and untapped opportunities to consider.
