I was a business person and still believe the purpose of a company is to increase shareholders profit.
Why are these companies bending to these woke activists, why do they feel the need to get involved in politics or moral issues? Why can’t they just say their goal is to satisfy every individual customer?
America was built on individualism, not classes of people or tribes.

It’s all part of the WEF/NWO plan....to destroy corporate America....while destroying, first, the middle class.

I’ve read their blueprint, previously, but, don’t have it saved.

norsky may have it saved.

I think it has some sinister sounding name with 2030, or, some similar number.

😡

Why these corporations are “all in”, in destroying themselves, is beyond me.

From what I have read I think it has to do with the ESG score.

ESG Scores and Ratings: What They Are, Why They Matter
17 August, 2020Kezia Farnham

As environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues ascend on the priority lists of boards and stakeholders, third-party rating and reporting organizations have developed ways of measuring companies’ efforts, such as providing an ESG score. Is a company failing to meet compliance obligations for environmental impact? Are diversity, equity or other governance issues putting the company at legal or reputational risk? The ESG reports and ratings developed answer these questions — often including a numeric or other ESG score — to provide clarity on ESG actions and for investment decisions.

For stakeholders and investors, ESG reports and ratings take some of the complexity out of evaluating a company’s ESG activities. As standard ESG benchmarks continue to evolve, independent ESG scores provided by third parties serve as important reference points for comparison.

Just as corporate boards should stay abreast of evolving ESG standards and frameworks, they should also be aware of what goes into an ESG score and why they’re important to investors and stakeholders. These scores can be a significant factor in attracting capital and maintaining transparent stakeholder communications on ESG. Here’s a brief overview of what boards need to know.
