Nordstrom also empowers employees by sharing examples of what other excellent employees have done to solve problems. • • Clear and transparent communication reassures both employees and customers. During challenging times, such as the pandemic, effective communication with leaders and stakeholders helps alleviate uncertainties, creates a sense of stability, and builds trust and confidence in the brand. • • Customers prefer brands that support the same social causes that they care about. Social responsibility isn't just about giving back to the community but also about understanding and respecting diverse values and perspectives. Embracing social responsibility means adapting to the changing cultural landscape, from hiring practices to ethical consumption and sustainable business operations. • • Building and maintaining strong relationships with customers is the foundation of business stability.
