As one of the earliest innovators in the shareowner advocacy arena–some might even say the inventor of shareholder advocacy–Tim Smith, Senior Vice President of Walden Asset Management’s Environment, Social, and Governance Group, has observed a dramatic evolution in how investors can influence companies to be more responsible citizens over the years.
In this engaging interview with Joe Sibilia, CEO of CSRwire, Smith shares his expertise on mobilizing investors to vote in favor of resolutions encouraging more social responsibility and better environmental stewardship.
This interview is part of a series of 2010 SRI in the Rockies speaker interviews, produced by First Affirmative Financial Network in partnership with CSRwire. Plan to join investors and investment professionals from the U.S. and around the world November 18-21, 2010 at the 21st annual SRI in the Rockies Conference at the JW Marriott Hill Country Resort & Spa in San Antonio, Texas.
