Can businesses make money by being good citizens? Former Chief Justice of the Delaware Supreme Court Leo Strine Jr. thinks so. 💡 Here’s how: Make sure you are making money in the right way and in a high-integrity way. Make sure the communities you operate in are better off for your being there. For example: Pay taxes, contribute to local charities, and sell safe and quality products. Most importantly, pay close attention to how you treat your #stakeholders as this is directly correlated to how you are respected in the community. ⚖ Q&A with Leo Strine Jr. https://lnkd.in/eVzmSPZZ #HarvardBusinessSchool #CorporateLeadership #Business #BiGSVoices Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz
