  • Project 2 milestone

    Overview

    As you prepare to review and analyze the financial performance of the health and beauty company you work for in Project Two, it will be helpful to analyze another company and learn from their business model, especially as it relates to corporate social responsibility (CSR), sustainability, and activism. To do this, you will review Patagonias activism and corporate social responsibility initiatives and identify potential key financial performance indicators (KPIs).

    Because Patagonia is a privately held company, its financial records are not available in the public domain. So, you are required to analyze the mission, vision, values, CSR initiatives, and financial records of the health and beauty company as well as the company you analyzed in Module One. You will then deduce which financial key performance indicators likely align with a companys mission, vision, values, and CSR initiatives.
