Stakeholder Identification and Engagement

Together with our stakeholders

‘Create Shared Value’ is defined as one of our strategic pillars and is fundamental to the purpose of our existence. It is applied to ensure that business decisions balance financial, social and environmental considerations, always keeping in mind the best interests of our stakeholders. For each stakeholder group, we have identified specific propositions that help in arriving at mutual wins.
