The term that has caught most traction and, is almost the same, is Corporate Social Responsibility, subject of ISO 26000.

Hi, you can look up ISO 9001:2015 clause 5.1.1 for a list of "to dos" for top management to demonstrate leadership. Many refer to the QMS.

Stewardship is less specific. To start, pls check out what is included in typical sustainability indices (e.g., DJSI). For example, avoiding recalls and drug shortages due to quality issues is also good for society. Therefore, a responsible manager would naturally drive an effective QMS.
