Welcome to the Community of Practice “Management Systems”!
In our community, practitioners, experts, and leaders connect to shape the future of sustainable organizational management. Building on the eccos²²® philosophy anchored in the CSR Dialogue Forum, we understand management systems as a foundational element of business excellence, sustainability performance, and organizational resilience. We view management systems not as rigid sets of rules, but as dynamic instruments that align strategy, processes, and culture—in line with international sustainability standards such as ISO 26000, the UN SDGs, and the requirements of the EU Green Deal.

Our community provides a space for knowledge sharing, practical discussion, and co-creation: How can integrated management systems be implemented effectively? How do we enhance the performance and value creation of our organizations? How do we connect environmental, social, and economic aspects in real-world implementation processes? Together, we reflect on challenges, share best practices, and further develop our understanding of holistic organizational governance. In doing so, we leverage the synergies of the CSR Dialogue Forum network—an accredited platform of the United Nations for sustainable business.

Join a community that connects knowledge, strengthens collaboration, and promotes sustainable management system thinking—aiming to align organizations with responsibility and future readiness.
