P&G has the distinct honor of being one of the oldest companies on our show, and one with a purpose that honors the organization’s legacy as much as it guides the multi-national CPG company into the future. 

Damon Jones, P&G’s Chief Communications Officer, joined Purpose 360 to talk about the company’s efforts to be “a force for good and a force for growth” across a portfolio of dozens of brands, with nearly 100,000 employees around the world. 

Listen for Damon’s insights on:

• How P&G crafted a purpose that is “built in, not bolted on” to be truly integrated in the company’s DNA—and that of its brands
• How purposes guides innovation across the organization, from global operations to brand-level improvements
• Why P&G pursues advocacy efforts around issues including gender and race equality, among others, and what the company has learned about embracing issues important to citizens
• The importance of authenticity and “walking the walk” of corporate purpose, and how P&G lives its purpose through commitments to fair and equal advertising, responsible supply chain, sustainability, and community engagement
• How the CPG company has responded to COVID-19 to protect employees in markets around the world, as well as consumers and communities
