Zusammenfassung

Informelle Organisationsstrukturen, die auf engen, auch internationalen Netzwerken beruhen, Mut, dem Wachstumsdiktat zu widerstehen, daraus resultierende Agilität und Fähigkeit zur schnellen Reaktion und Innovation, die Werte der Handschlagqualität, sprich Vertrauen und Transparenz, und demokratische Entscheide sind einige der Schlüsselmerkmale wie Schweizer Klein- und mittelgroße Unternehmen (KMU) ihre gesellschaftliche Verantwortung (Corporate Social Responsibility – CSR) im Geschäftsalltag implizit wahrnehmen. Anstand, die Umsetzung von langfristigen Werten, der Ehrgeiz und Anspruch an sich selber, sowohl exzellenter Handwerker und/oder Dienstleister als auch sorgender Arbeitgeber zu sein, und die Eingebundenheit in die Gemeinden sind essenzielle Wertetreiber. Diese machen KMU zur Stütze der Gesellschaft. Dies geschieht, ohne das dazugehörige explizite Vokabular bekannter Berichtskonzepte, Standards etc. zu benutzen, sondern aus intrinsischer Absicht und Motivation heraus, was sich in impliziter interner (wie auch externer) Kommunikation manifestiert. Als Schweizer KMU tut man Gutes und spricht nicht darüber! In anderen Worten: Die gesellschaftliche Verantwortung wird gelebt, nicht zur Schau gestellt.
