Association Management Group, Inc. is proud to join the new association movement to adopt Global Principles for Socially Responsible Associations & Nonprofits established by the American Society of Association Executives. The term “social responsibility” is defined as a commitment to leveraging the power of the association community to create business practices that make a positive social, economic, and environmental impact while creating healthier organizations.
The Global Principles comprise the following:
- Responsible Advocacy – working against all forms of corruption in a manner consistent with the general public good
- Environmental and Economic Sustainability – encouraging development and implementation of environmentally responsible business practices as well as contributing to the economic success of all represented employees, customers, communities and stakeholders
- Public Protection – conducting all business in an ethical manner while protecting the safety, health and other interests of those relying upon the products and/or services provided to their members
- Diversity –valuing and seeking diverse and inclusive participation within the association community
- Philanthropy/Community Service – fostering open relationships and seeking opportunities to give back to the community
- Leadership – promoting organizational practices that serve as an example of the values presented in the principles and working with members as well as team members to enhance the effective actualization of these principles
“With our commitment and support to these principles, we formalize what we have practiced at AMG for years,” says J. Bruce Wardle, AMG president and CEO. “We actively will support this industry wide movement and will encourage our associations to consider incorporating these principles into their strategic plans as well.”
