Amy Domini Named
“Responsibility Pioneer” by Time Magazine
Amy Domini, founder
and CEO of Domini Social Investments, has been honored by Time magazine as one of 25 “Responsibility Pioneers” who are
changing the world. The list accompanied the magazine's special section on
community service, "The Responsibility Revolution," in the September
21 issue.
"Amy Domini
started shaking up Wall Street in 1984 with a book she co-wrote, Ethical Investing," wrote Time’s
Jeremy Caplan.
"Since then, she
has used various means — from working with executives to forcing reforms via
shareholder resolutions — to help companies grow a conscience. And she has
proved that principles pay.... Her investing ethos is simple: 'The future of
the planet is as important as an earnings report.'"
Amy Domini has been
honored previously by Time magazine.
In 2005, she was named by the magazine as one of the 100 most influential
people in the world. In 2008, Directorship
magazine included Amy Domini in its Directorship 100, a list of the most
influential people on corporate governance and in the boardroom. She has
received honorary doctorates from the Northeastern University College of Law
and Yale University's Berkeley Divinity School.
