Hello friends, as we all know that we all are social human being, especially indians leaves on emotion like soft corner for underprivileged, orphans, poor and physically challenged, so if we we convert our emotion into commitment for all of them, then only we can think and feel that yes really I am human being. We have so many ex. As role model like TATA, ITC, Salman khan and many more who is serving to all society, although they are also a part of so called "CORPORATE".

THANK YOU.

Since, the topic is such where in we have to drag the Corporate sector in between. As matter of fact thinking about the social sector, being a social animal, we must think about others as well. My personal belief when we talk about the corporate sector, it's about a doing a job like others do with the same heart, same emotions. There are so many companies which have some way or the other linked to some NGO's or other societies, which are active and helping the people who are in need. We should identify the channel to help the needy. Rest everything will fall on place and will give us some peace and happiness of helping others.

Its not that one who ears more should be active in social sectors can be done by the individual who know the actual meaning of rise and fall. Because tors too. Making your contribution in social sector can be done by one who knows the meaning of rise and fall.

One cannot become directly rich, he may had faced failures a number of time than achieved a success of high rate. So social sectors is not demanding the money, it means raising people to stand on the basis of their capability.

Actually mentality obliges persons to do anything rather than situation or circumstances. Not giving excuses whether he/she is working in the prestigious corporate sectors, earning money a lot, is the busiest person in the world having no time to spent for others, if he or she really wants to look out the social activities like helping poor, donating blood, concerns about environment, lot of plantains etc.

It fully depends on his attributions towards mentality. Most of the people think why do I do for others. It has become today's moto.

Hello everyone,

To be frank, It is not possible for many. Most of the people in corporate are under pressure and are depressed. They don't have time to spend for their family and friends and we cannot expect them to do social work. But, if a person is emotionally intelligent and if he/she is self-motivated, he/she could definitely do it.

While being employed in the the corporate world, it's a responsibility of person to contribute to the social sector. Man being a social animal can attain satisfaction only after contributing to society.

To celebrate one's success alone does not provide him happiness, when celebrated with others utopia is experienced.

Formation of various NGOs is a pragmatic example of how the corporate sector contributes to the social sector. The benefactor of these social organization is always a corporate employee.

The initiative by the top business tycoon such as Bill Gates, is a metamorphosis in the corporate industry, which is encouraging more tycoons to walk on the same footprints.

I believe that everyone should realize their responsibility & come forward to help the social sector with Knowledge, Money, and by providing small employment.

Its not very tough to help poor people while working in the corporate world.

They don't have enough financial resources to put their children in a school. Hence, we can spread the education and try to make them feel happy.

We are living in India where people are famous not for its luxurious things but famous for their helping nature.

Yes. Any person who is employed and earning can contribute to the society. Especially people who are working in the corporate sector are well known for the CSR activities. They can be responsible to the society not only by the way of helping poor or adopting a child from ashrams but also not harming the society by using the car by a single person. They can save petrol.

Opposite of contribution is selfish which is fatal for human life, and contribution to the social sector. It should be. As we are a part of society we should contribute something whether whatever the position we hold. Somewhat it also will be helpful in the work.
