KEY CONCEPT

Organizations and companies can promote social change through the creation of dedicated new positions, such as a sustainability manager to promote the companies’ environmental efforts. Over time, however, these positions become institutionalized, and the activists originally brought in to fulfill these roles are replaced by professionals without no experience related to the cause.
