Debate of Ethical Ideologies of CSR with CEOs
Hi Wikipedia, I am planning on discussing the debate of Ethical Ideologies of CSR with CEOs in "Criticisms and Concerns" section. I will also add content to brand differentiation and human resources under "Potential Benefits" Please let me know if you have any comments.Oliverk25 (talk) 14:12, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

Negative impact of corporate psychopathy
This section seems somewhat biased. It seems to presume all corporate employees are psychopaths, and thus creates an argument that CSR is illogical because all corporate operators are psychopaths. I'm not certain that it has a large enough impact on CSR. I'd like to recommend it be removed, or expanded upon with less biased language. CPfiffer (talk) 06:46, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

Restoration of article on Corporate responsibility
The merger of the Corporate responsibility article with this article on Corporate Social Responsibility in September 2007 failed to take account of aspects of companies' responsibilities for good governance, accountability to shareholders, legal compliance, maintaining their own long term business sustainability etc which operate alongside companies' wider responsibilities for the social, economic and environmental impact of their business activities. For example, the CFO and CEO's responsibility for the accuracy and compliance of their reports to shareholders may be referred to as "corporate responsibility": see https://www.sarbanes-oxley-101.com/SOX-302.htm for example: SOX Section 302: Corporate Responsibility for Financial Reports and Sarbanes–Oxley Act. I am therefore proposing to restore Corporate responsibility as a separate article. BobKilcoyne (talk) 04:06, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

Need to add balance
This edit was reverted but presents much needed balance to the article, after all the documentary was internationally awarded, and even had a sequel, so this is not a fringe view:

Joel Bakan, the University of British Columbia professor and author of the award-winning book The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power, writes: "The law forbids any motivation for their actions, whether to assist workers, improve the environment, or help consumers save money. They can do these things with their own money, as private citizens. As corporate officials, however, stewards of other people’s money, they have no legal authority to pursue such goals as ends in themselves – only as means to serve the corporations own interests, which generally means to maximize the wealth of its shareholders. Corporate social responsibility is thus illegal – at least when its genuine."

Needs section on outsourcing
This article needs a section on outsourcing of CSR, see e.g. Agnerf (talk) 09:21, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
