The Colors of Perception: The Interviews

The Colors of Perception takes a unique look at the question “what does social responsibility in the media and communications industries really mean?”

While most reports today address how the news media report on CSR, sustainability and other related issues, The Colors of Perception turns the examining glass directly at the media and communications (M/C) sector itself.

In doing so, the report discusses perception, a fundamental element in the M/C sector that has thus far been largely overlooked, examines how perception impacts the relationship between an organization and its communications efforts, explores what actions organizations take to ensure they’re communicating responsibly, and proposes a path toward possible solutions.

In this segment, we feature extensive, frank personal interviews with experienced media professionals and some of the green business world’s most familiar voices:

• Amy Domini, Domini Social Investments
• Andy Revkin, The New York Times
• Ben Cohen, Ben&Jerry’s
• David Wecal, Pricewaterhouse Coopers
• Gillian Caldwell, WITNESS
• Jeff Dvorkin, NPR
• John Paluszek, Ketchum
• Kim Spencer, Link TV
• Michael Braungart, MBDC
• Ross Gelbspan, Pulitzer Prize-winning author
• Dr. Stephen Schneider, Stanford University
...and others

At a full 130 pages, The Colors of Perception offers a new insight into the intricacies of ethics and responsibility in an industry that affects virtually everyone on the planet... but most of all it’s an invitation to think, to discuss, and to put the power of responsible media to use for your organization.
