I'm really pleased the CRO does this each year. I read another article that shows the top "Corporate Citizens" routinely out pace the S&P 500 index. Better run companies, make for happier employees, which makes for a better product. IMHO. An given this years top 10.. they all make pretty damn good products. ;)
Here is the blurb.
This is the fifth consecutive year that Green Mountain Coffee Roasters has appeared on the list, the only time a company has been awarded the top spot for two years running, and the only company other than IBM that has been ranked first twice.
Now in its 8th year, the "100 Best Corporate Citizens" list was developed by Business Ethics magazine, which was incorporated last year into The CRO, a membership organization for Corporate Responsibility Officers.
The list is drawn from more than 1,100 of the largest U.S. publicly held companies and identifies those that excel at serving a variety of stakeholders. Firms are ranked on performance in eight stakeholder categories: shareholders, governance, community, diversity, employees, environment, human rights and product.
Green Mountain Coffee Roasters shares top 10 honors with Advanced Micro Devices (#2), Nike Inc. (#3), Motorola Inc. (#4), Intel Corp. (#5), IBM (#6), Agilent Technologies Inc. (#7), The Timberland Company (#8), Starbucks Corporation (#9), and General Mills Inc. (#10).
Here is the full list at www.thecro.comCongrats Green Mountain :toast:
