The next generation of employees expects businesses to be more involved in “social action” and making a difference in communities, according to National Grid CEO Steve Holliday.
Holliday was speaking at Business in the Community’s Responsible Business Awards at the Royal Albert Hall. “The next generation are not looking for the same as I was looking for,” he said. “Social action is becoming a must-have.”
Holliday also said the concept of responsible business and “driving better social and economic wellbeing” had moved beyond the CSR report to become “the new day job”.
