David Crowther is a British academic and writer, specialising in the field of Corporate Social Responsibility, in the areas of governance, sustainability, and accountability. He was born in Wigan, England in the 1950s and was educated at Nottingham High School.
Early career
He commenced working in local government and qualified as an accountant – CPFA (1975) and ACMA (1977), FCMA (1986). He worked in various public and private sector organisations as accountant, systems specialist, and general manager, rising to board level before a spell as a self-employed management consultant.[citation needed]
Later career
He acquired degrees from the Open University, Loughborough University, Aston University, and Nottingham Trent University. In 1994, he joined Aston University and there obtained a PhD in 1999 for research into corporate social performance. David then moved to London Metropolitan University, where he held a chair in Corporate Governance. He is now Professor of Corporate Social Responsibility at De Montfort University. He has been a visiting professor in 7 countries, most recently (since 2006) in Turkey.[1]
In 2003, he organised the first International Conference on Corporate Social Responsibility in London, which led to annual conferences taking place around the world.[2] Following this, he established the Social Responsibility Research Network, an international body which now has 1000 members, which he continues to chair. In 2005, he established and edits Social Responsibility Journal; he also edits book series with Emerald Group Publishing and Ashgate Group Publishing. In 2010, he established the Organisational Governance Network and conference series – now in its 4th year.[3] He is on the advisory boards of many organisations.[4] He has worked with Ralph Nader in the Association for Integrity in Accounting[5] and the Citizen Works Corporate Reform Commission.[6]
His initial work focused on social and environmental accounting. A distinctive aspect of this work was the application of a semiological perspective to environmental accounting. Later, his focus shifted to corporate social responsibility and, more recently, sustainability and governance. His views are represented in his numerous publications, in newspapers,[7][8][9][10][11][12] on radio[13][14] and television.[15][16] He has spoken at business and academic conferences in over 25 countries.[17] He continues to work internationally in the areas of governance and sustainability.
He is Professor of Corporate Social Responsibility, De Montfort University, UK; visiting professor at London School of Commerce, UK; and also employed at Trakya University, Turkey.[citation needed] He is also Chair of the Social Responsibility Research Network.[citation needed]
