Read the Case “Corporate Social Responsibility at Gravity Payments” at the end of Chapter 3 and response to the following:

1. Is Price demonstrating elements of corporate social responsibility by his actions in this case, or not?
2. How is Price exhibiting the fourth Phase of Corporate Citizenship (Figure 3.2, 1990s to present: Corporate/Global Citizenship) in his actions at Gravity Payments?
3. What arguments in support of, or concerns about, corporate social responsibility (referring to Figure 3.3) are relevant to this case?
4. Is Price acting like an executive of a firm that could be certified as a B corporation?
5. What stage of global corporate citizenship (using Figure 3.5) is Gravity Payments operating at, and why do you think so?
