    ISSUES AT HAND

    Shells reputation with regards to Sustainability / CSR is not good. Afterbeing seen as leaders some years ago they are now being perceived as

    just putting a lot of money in their communication

    Worsening reputation

    Over the last few years Shell have not really convinced on the contentand implementation side through innovation at all. This might be theconsequence of not being leaders anymore combined with a lack ofaspiration for bringing their reporting and best practice onto the nextlevel.

    Lack of Sustainability / CSR innovation

    The corporate context and culture itself at Shell does not fully go handin hand with their Sustainability / CSR messaging .

    Perceived indifferent corporate culture
