Business Roundtable: Cognizant CEO Articulates Cognizant’s Commitment to Sustainability in Business Roundtable’s 2012 Sustainability Report, “Create, Grow, Sustain”

“At Cognizant, our commitment—indeed our passion—is to help our clients address the challenges and opportunities of a business environment that is undergoing dramatic change,” writes Francisco D’Souza. “We assist companies in adapting to a future of work that is being transformed by globalization, virtualization, the millennial demographic shift and new technologies. Yet we cannot prepare any business (our clients’ or our own) for the future of work without considering the future of society and our planet.” This realization, adds D’Souza, inspires Cognizant to be responsible global citizens and play a positive role in its communities.

“The main thrust of our sustainability efforts includes maintaining the highest standards of business conduct; reducing environmental impact; providing a safe workplace while promoting professional development; improving the quality of education in our communities; and delivering on commitments to clients, investors, associates and other stakeholders,” writes D’Souza.

The sustainability report, now in its fifth year, features narratives from America’s CEOs on how their companies are leading the way with solutions to make the US economy more sustainable while also driving economic growth and job creation.
