Look at That Face

Presidential politics took an odd turn a few weeks ago when one candidate summarized the prospects for Ms. Fiorina's presidential ambitions in four words: "Look at that face." My immediate reaction couldn't for the most part be printed in these pages, but the comment stuck with me.

Benefit Corporation Governance is a Best Practice for Sustainability Leaders

Sustainability performance is critical for 21stCentury businesses. Employees and customers throughout the supply chain demand it. Investors do as well, and with good reason—one recent survey that looks at 200 academic studies found that 88% of sources found that “robust sustainable practices . . . translate into cash flows.” However, full integration of “robust sustainable practices” may require a governance change to endure over time, especially in the context of the public markets.
