Gil McWilliam, the executive director of Duke&#39;s Corporate Program is quoted saying, &quot;Since Duke began its custom executive-education offerings in 2000, about 40% of corporate clients have either discussed or taken on social initiatives, with a big chunk of those doing so for the first time this year.&quot; The article also underlines the fact that corporate social responsibility is increasingly becoming important for companies from a reputation point of view. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An excerpt: &quot;&lt;i&gt;At Northwestern University&#39;s Kellogg School of Management, a module that simulates a corporate crisis component with a corporate social responsibility angle has become a popular add-on.
