This will be a great tool for individual companies to assess their own work and for the field to see where we need addition resources to be successful in community involvement. I'm challenged by some of the subtleties of the questions but realize this will help hone our understanding of our work. I also wonder about the impact that a change in CEO has on how the standards are being met, which begs the question of how we imbed our work into the culture of the company. The other influencer I see as a trend is the marketing department and the synergies and challenges with community involvement and business objectives.
