Description

From The Conference Board ESG Center, this is the first of two interviews with Jamie Gamble on his essay, “The Most Important Problem in the World.”  Gamble traces major global challenges from climate change to economic inequality to corporations who, Gamble asserts, “are legally obligated to act like sociopaths.”  A provocative statement from a former partner of a major New York law firm. This interview addresses whether corporations are obligated to act as sociopaths.  The second interview focuses on Jamie’s views on how to make it easier for corporations to act in the best interest of society at large.
