Ep. 324 The Profiteers and Their Hidden Social and Environmental Costs

Perspectives in Business

Business leaders and corporations profess their dedication to sustainability and ESG metrics, but the question is: do they do it? Christopher Marquis is the author of The Profiteers: How Business Privatizes Profits and Socializes Costs. Christopher Marquis is the Sinyi Professor of Chinese Management at the University of Cambridge in the UK. This episode highlights interesting points from his books, such as Corporate Gaslighting, ESG as a toxic term, externalities, and more. I highly recommend his book.
