106. Putting stakeholder capitalism into practice

“Stakeholder capitalism” is the buzzword du jour for business practices that strive to achieve more than profits and a high stock price. But what does benefitting all stakeholders really entail?

Schwarzman Foundation, and senior advisor to McKinsey on E.S.G and Purpose.
