Next Big Thing Executive Forum
What’s YOUR next big thing?
At CSR Communications, we’re the experts at helping socially-conscious businesses and mission-driven organizations achieve their next big initiative and rapidly expand their impact.
That’s why we launched the Next Big Thing Executive Forum. This monthly series brings together small groups of C-Suite executives and senior leaders for off-the-record, peer-to-peer, idea exchange conversations. We cover topics essential to defining, designing and successfully realizing your “next big thing,” whether it’s a new strategic initiative, internal policy shift or significant organizational transformation. There’s no fee to participate and no sales pitch at the event.

About Nancy Murphy
Our founder and CEO, Nancy Murphy, has spent her career saying what others are afraid to – and learning to say it in ways that others will listen. She’s led big change initiatives and advocated small shifts inside philanthropy, government, nonprofits, and businesses. Along the way, she learned some lessons the hard way, and crafted solutions to the challenges, frustrations, and resistance that come with organizational change. She founded CSR Communications in 2014 to share all of that with leaders like you to help you change your organization for the better.
Why does that matter?
When large organizations and legacy institutions become more innovative, equitable, sustainable, inclusive, healthier, and overall better places to work, the systems they operate in also change, and so does our world. That’s why we work with “intrapreneurs,” those leaders with entrepreneurial mindset and innovative thinking who disrupt organizations from within, creating change, at scale, faster.
More than a decade later, we count some of the best-known nonprofits and foundations, celebrated corporate leaders in sustainability and best places to work, and innovative municipal agencies among our clients.
Our vision is a world where organizations, and the people within them, evolve with ease to achieve increasing levels of innovation, sustainability, equity, inclusion and growth.
