Corporate values as a compass: taking a stance on polarizing issues – Emtrain
How should companies weigh-in on the ever-prevalent issue of diversity and inclusion in business? How about the use of independent contractors in the gig economy? Immigration? Environmental issues?
Given these turbulent times, it may seem risky to pass judgement on social issues as a corporate leader. But remaining silent can backfire on the corporate brand as well. Join us as we discuss how to use your corporate values as the rudder to determine which social issues to weigh-in on, and how to take a position that illustrates and amplifies your corporate values.
