DOI: 10.33917/mic-2.127.2025.30-43

In the context of the growing importance of sustainable development and increasing societal expectations toward business, Russian companies face the need to integrate corporate social responsibility into management processes based on the traditional values of national culture. This article presents theoretical and methodological approaches to developing a value-based model for managing organizational sustainable development. Key elements of the model, including principles of fairness, dignity, and solidarity, are explored, as well as their role in enhancing organizational resilience and adaptability. A conceptual foundation has been formed for the subsequent development of a functional model and tools for its implementation.
