Jaagore vs. Rajasthan Royals - Tata' CSR vs. Business
Friday, May 8. 2009
Jaagore.com campaign is running from last 6 months or so and I guess it had done pretty good job by spreading awareness. This program is backed by Tata, of-course it must had been part of its CSR. Recently, I noticed that Rajasthan Royals team in IPL T20 is also sponsored by TCS (a TATA company).
During election time when TATA is trying to make Indian voters walk for voting, the same company is sponsoring a group of voters who are not there to vote
and not to forget, luring many people to travel.
I remember talking to one guy who was working with one of the TATA company. He mentioned that the CSR activities in any TATA company is governed by the top management and companies individually don't have any control over that. But at least, all the following companies should be aligned with the CSR activities, the corporation believes in.
If as a corporation, it doesn't follow the values for which it is lecturing people in the society then how can it expect others to believe in that and follow those?
I see a clear conflict between the two.
