“Today, employees, investors and stakeholders are putting their greatest trust in companies to take leadership on societal issues. Companies that take the long view with a purpose-based strategy are proven to not only outperform but last,” said Ethisphere’s chief executive officer, Timothy Erblich. “I congratulate everyone at Hasbro for earning this recognition.”
