"PR in corporate responsibility is evolving away from press releases and media relations to become a set of strategic practices that re-shape corporate cultures and processes completely," says CRO Magazine publisher Jay Whitehead. "In corporate responsibility, PR firms today are looking more like management consultancies."

CRO compiled the list from questionnaire responses and publicly available data, ranking the firms based on number of PR professionals engaged with clients in corporate responsibility (CR) assignments. The list also shows each firm's CR-related client count and lists prominent client names.
