Ethicast: Why Corporate Stakeholders Deserve Your “Credible Commitment”

Ethicast: Why Corporate Stakeholders Deserve Your “Credible Commitment”

Lisa Fairfax, Presidential Professor at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School and co-director of the Institute for Law & Economics, shares her thoughts on how stakeholderism counterbalances the notion that businesses are purely meant to make a profit, why its support waxes and wanes, and why corporations really can help address society’s biggest challenges.

In this Ethicast, hear about:

  • What exactly is stakeholderism?
  • Why does business support for it vary?
  • What does credible commitment look like?
  • Can profit and stakeholderism co-exist?

Lisa will be speaking at the 2023 ESG Forum, held on Sept. 26-27. Use the access code ETHPODCAST to register for free!
