As IBD well knows, if enough shareholders disagree with CSR initiatives they can always push to put it up to shareholder vote.
I also think IBD probably realizes that a “slash the CSR” vote would probably go nowhere. Certainly shows they don’t know much about current labor markets and what young professionals are looking for.
RhapsodyInGlue February 15th, 2008…and not a single example of an executive “arbitrarily ” spending funds on CSR activities in this article, pure hyperbole. Execs are under pressure and that pressure comes from the market, legislators and consumers; if they fail to act their companies (and investors) will pay the ultimate price of imposed legislation, lost market share to competitors that get it and irate consumers - is that what this uninformed commentator wants?
