Chapter Chapter 1 in Corporate Digital Responsibility, 2021, pp 1-52 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Data and digital technologies are changing businesses and the economy to an unprecedented extent. The aim of this book is to provide Corporate Responsibility (CR) experts and sustainability managers with an introduction to digitalization as a specialist area of corporate responsibility. For this reason, some fundamental technological developments that characterize digitalization are first presented and their impact on the economy and companies is explained. Then, it will be justified why digitalization requires a change in corporate responsibility and how corporate (social) responsibility must expand to corporate digital responsibility (CDR). CDR is then defined and existing concepts of CR or sustainability management are related to it. Lastly, CDR is substantiated as a cross-sectoral topic and it is outlined how to implement CDR as corporate responsibility innovation in six steps. This refers to further contents of the book.
