Tthe world has problems, just like it always had and always will. They need to be managed and/or solved to keep them from overwhelming us and so that we may thrive.

My name is Philip Cain. I am the president of Orelle Corporation and these citizenship pages are written entirely by me and reflect my own thoughts. My primary thesis is that a policy that causes business to withdraw from the public arena is not good or sound business policy. All that I say here springs from that thought.

This page is about the responsibilities that companies (and by extension, all organizations) have in the management or solutions to these problems. This is about an agenda for corporate citizenship: things that companies must do to be good corporate citizens.

You can see what others are doing and thinking on the list of  corporate citizenship resources. (If you want to read a more involved paper on the reasons for an agenda at all, please see the Orelle Corporate Citizenship Philosophy.)
 

• Education of children: This is our most important business resource. It needs work.
• Drugs: Their abuse is killing us.
• Neighborhood safety: Moving away from guns and shooters isn't good enough any more.
• People-centered management: Workers live and breath outside of shift time and managers need to understand what that means.
• Day-care: It's time to pick up the cost.
• Air, water, and earth: If you pollute it, un-pollute it; then charge your customers.
• Unions: Is it enough for unions to ask for higher wages or, like the Hanseatic League, should the unions guarantee the quality of their work?

I invite executives from all businesses to respond. 

Thanks for stopping by.
