We are almost to the end of the term; I hope everyone is excelling
and doing great. The week is also almost over for those that are both
working and doing school, woohoo to the weekend!
Both CSR and DEI are essential components for businesses to have
especially large businesses. After reading everyone's discussion posts
I have found that all of the information reflects this as well. Of course,
we are all doing different companies for the most part, but all of the
companies we are focusing on are large companies that practice
these important fundamentals.
• What steps are you going to take to promote CSR initiatives?
For example: what community programs, nonprofits, or
environmental projects will the new product or service support?
Tesla reports our CSR initiatives by releasing an ESG report. This ESG
report stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance. Which is
basically an impact report that shows the overall impact that our
company has in those designated areas, it is a full comprehensive list
of everything they we are doing, are going to do, and going to change.
It is a very interesting report that I find to be extremely beneficial
information that any and all are able to get their hands on. With Tesla
constantly making changes for the better of their community around
them I find them to be highly informative. The cybertruck alone has
the capabilities to put all large construction businesses work trucks
out of commission and to be replaced by the cybertruck that has
better specs and is better for the environment. "Tesla is on a mission
to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy" (Tesla,
2020). With this statement alone it shows that here at Tesla we are
serious about the environment and want to make this world better
for the future.
• How do you plan to attract, develop, engage, and reward your
project team?
My project team will have a better quality of life as well as increased
incentives for wanting to work. As we gather and receive employees
at Tesla, we ensure that our team members have the same mentalities
as the rest of the team, which is wanting to increase the overall
quality of life. We strive to work hard, instill positive attitudes, and
work for the dream that we all share. The incentives that we put in
place are what helps drive our team members. Incentives such as
promotions, raises, work reviews, bonuses, and many other benefits
to help ensure that whether or not our team members are home or at
work that they are enjoying their quality of life. Open door is also
important so that our team members do not hesitate to ask questions
or speak their concerns that they may have. This is a place of business
but also a place that our team members should feel comfortable at.
