Our Model

Responsible 100 brings individuals and organisations together to collaborate on responsibility and sustainability issues and to raise one another up.

We align the interests of multiple stakeholders with particular focus on connecting participating businesses with our partner organisations – those campaigners, NGOs, academics and specialists who play an essential role as “critical friends” and grow and share knowledge and networks.

Sharing Is Caring

Responsible 100 runs on stories, which is why we enable and incentivise their creation and dissemination.

While you have complete control over whether to share your stories, which ones, and with whom, the more stories you share the better. Participating businesses and other types of organisation that create and share stories benefit themselves, other participants, our partner organisations and the Responsible 100 initiative as a whole.

We recognise the most prolific story sharers in simple ways (NB the example ‘league table’ below uses dummy organisations and details).

  1. Organisations may become Silver participants once they have shared 11-19 stories, and Gold participants once they have shared 20 stories. Silver participants will receive 12 consultancy hours for their standard fee and Gold participants will receive 15 hours.
  2. Consultancy hours may be used sooner than one per month for 10, 12 or 15 months, but unused hours cannot be rolled over to any subsequent month. 
  3. The 2 bonus hours that Silver participants receive and the 5 bonus hours that Gold participants receive are general hours provided by Responsible 100 consultants at no additional charge. 
  4. Should specialist consultancy be required that is charged at a rate higher than £100 per hour, multiple participants may pool their unused hours to share the cost of one specialist for a specific issue or challenge.
  5. Once all support hours are used, the participant buys another block.
