become short hand for looking at companies, or any institution, in a way different than their stated mission. So for companies, beyond just profits. How do you interact with the environment? Do you hire women and minorities? Have you updated your personnel policies (like leave) beyond simple government mandates? Do you have a stakeholder viewpoint established in your culture?

Many companies rate companies this way and I am certain it will be coming to Big Law or Accounting, etc. if for no other reason than companies doing it impose these rules on their vendors because with whom you do business affects your rating.
