We hear it in the office.
We see on LinkedIn.

Across the CSR industry, there’s one 5-word statement that’s showing up in nearly every headline: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is changing… and companies need to keep up or risk being left behind.

But, when it comes to our own programmes, what does this “change,” actually mean?

For answers, we had an exclusive sit down with Dale Strange, President & SVP, Corporate Impact, Blackbaud, during our 2025 Corporate Social Impact Summit in London. In this insightful discussion, he shared his perspective on:

• The top trends shaping the future of corporate volunteering, giving, and philanthropy

• The biggest challenges companies face when making a difference

• Whether or not companies can truly drive both profits and purpose

• And the role that leadership plays in fostering a culture of impact

Whether you’re building your first CSR programme or refining an existing one, this interview is full of practical insights to help future-proof your strategy for 2026 and beyond.
