Episode 8: The State of Shareholder Capitalism w/ Dr. Alexander Salter

For decades, society has debated the core purpose of a firm: Does it exist primarily to serve shareholders, or should it primarily serve a broader group of stakeholders, including the general public good? In this episode, Joel sits down with Dr. Alexander Salter, Associate Professor of Economics in the Rawls College of Business at Texas Tech University, for a discussion of where the “shareholder capitalism vs. stakeholder capitalism” debate stands in the age of social media, activism, and globalization.
