CSR Leadership: A Podcast with Walgreens Boots Alliance CPO Jim Townsend

Walgreens Boots Alliance CPO Jim Townsend says he is generally uncomfortable with the status quo, so he has been a change agent through much of his career. That’s one reason why he is on the CIPS Procurement Power list this year. One of his focuses currently is corporate social responsibility, which he sees as a foundation for success for any company – and especially one that is dedicated to wellness. Townsend describes how CSR drives his organization and even helps him recruit talent.
