1. The public expects firms to be active and proactive in responding to the needs of the community. 2. Few multinational organizations as well as nationally and locally based ones are actively involved with community initiatives such as mentorship programs for disadvantaged students, internships, sponsorship of local school programs, and participation of company leaders on boards of minority organizations in the community. 3.
