Hayden Turner hosts Responsible Business a new television series produced by Global Initiatives and broadcast globally on CNBC. Responsible Business showcases global corporations that are developing business-driven solutions to some of the greatest challenges facing our world today.

These corporations partner with governments, non-government organisations (NGOs) and other international organisations to achieve 'triple bottom line' results: not only to improve their reputations and profits, but also because it is the right thing to do. The series highlights the issues: poverty, climate change, human rights, corruption, education and health care among others, and explores innovative strategies and partnerships that place corporate citizenship at the centre of international business.

Each episode showcases businesses that are setting new benchmarks for measuring business, social and environmental success (triple bottom line). Responsible Business explores the role of the corporation in advancing sustainable economic and social development, and solving global problems through multi-stakeholder partnerships.

Promoting the principles put forward by the United Nations Global Compact, the series presents companies that demonstrate leadership in adopting these principles throughout their businesses.
