  • About
In today’s climate, companies must be economically successful and at the same time take social responsibility. Author Cesar Sandro Saenz Acosta introduces a new SROIM (Social Return on Investment Management) model, to design and measure the social value created by companies. SROIM is a framework for tracking, understanding, measuring, and reporting the social, economic and environmental value created by a project, a program, or a business. This value creation can be done: 
  • Before the project is initiated 
  • During design and development, to plan for maximum value. 
  • During implementation, so that maximum value can be attained. 
  • During post-analysis, to assess the delivered value against the anticipated value.  
Acosta presents a methodological approach that can be replicated throughout an organization, to demonstrate a company’s creation of value through the social return of the investment.

    Sáenz introduces the Social Return on Investment Management model as a tool to measure corporate social responsibility projects in a simple and systematic manner, to identify the real impact of the projects, and to measure the social return on investment in these projects. He uses the stages of a marriage--from falling in love to grandparenting--to explain the workings of the model, identifies its objectives as visualizing impact and calculating the model, presents case studies of several companies and industries, and explains how to integrate the social programs.
