"About Davos man It's a term coined by the late political scientist Samuel Huntington It refers to a group of very well-known individuals in the business and broader world We talk about them a lot Yeah they're known to attend the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos Switzerland when it takes place in person anyway They're the elite executives the ones that we in the business media well we cover them a lot The movers and shakers the billionaires that were constantly discussing on Bloomberg In fact they screwed I think we probably mentioned several times throughout the week The thing is Peter is in a fan of Davos man Peter is The New York Times global economics correspondent and he talks about this in his new book Davos man have the billionaires devoured the world and he gets into who he's talking about specifically I'm using it to describe not only forum participants and billionaires but a special kind of billionaire who would have us believe that their interests are interest collectively And that's this idea that if we organize our economies and our societies around sending more wealth to the people who already have most of it the magic of trickle down economics will take care of the rest And we will all prosper We've been running an open air experiment in this idea that I referred to as the cosmic Hawaii for the last half century And the results are not at all pretty This is an idea that Davos man uses religion to protect himself against democracies trying to redistribute the wealth in a fair way Well she's 5 of these Davos men to highlight throughout the book Jeff Bezos Stephen Schwartzman Larry Fink Jamie Dimon Mark benioff names that our audience is certainly familiar with Why these 5 folks And look they're all men Yeah Well look in reality Davos man is mostly male mostly American mostly white There are lots of exceptions but that's the rule Look I could have picked almost anybody within the billionaire class who goes to Davos and come up with largely the same book I think these guys because it's a cross section of finance and tech and two of them benioff and Larry Fink in particular are champions of this idea stakeholder capitalism Much heralded much celebrated by much of the business press This notion that Milton Friedman ism is over and that companies are no longer just to organize to return profit to shareholders Now they're catering to what they call stakeholders that's labor local communities social aims And I argue in the book that the pandemic was really the first big test of stakeholder capitalism in the summer of 2019 a bunch of CEOs coalescing at the business roundtable then headed by Jamie Dimon actually signed off on this new statement of a purpose of a corporation And I argue and I think the pandemic makes pretty clear that they used this pledge of stakeholder capitalism as a way to say we've got this You don't need to tax us you don't need to regulate us You can outsource to us with confidence The solving of the world's biggest problems like climate change like gender and racial inequality and the pandemic has shown that that was really accrued exercise in public relations You know Peter it's really interesting because it's just coming off a conversation we just had about ESG investing which we talk about a lot here at Bloomberg and there's so much money going into I'm sure you know into the world of ESG to the point where it's becoming a very significant percentage of overall assets that are out there How do we change this Because I think there's a lot of investors who think they're doing good by Tapping into ESG and yet it kind of is many would argue it's not I mean we need more transparency Look there's nothing wrong with the idea of stakeholder capitalism or ESG right I mean if companies want to actually try to solve social aims and they're being transparent about that and some investors don't want to ride on that particular boat They don't have to put their money there That's fine But we need a way to actually test these claims instead of just taking it I mean take a mark by who's a guy who does a lot of philanthropy This is the CEO of Salesforce big Silicon Valley tech company You actually says at Davos last year virtual gathering because it couldn't be because of the pandemic Right CEOs are the real heroes of the pandemic I mean he's not talking about frontline medical workers He's not talking about parents dealing with kids cooped up dealing with this learning or essential workers deliberate our food CEOs and he says it was the CEOs of companies who gave us vaccines and credit that staved off bankruptcy Right right Specifically said his government didn't save you we saved you You were talking about how Marc benioff of Salesforce last year at the virtual Davos event talked about how the CEOs were the real heroes And you read about that in your book You also you engaged with Mark benioff for this book you spoke to him And I know I'm wondering what the productive conversation is around that What did he tell you when faced with your criticism Yeah he seemed to be into the back and forth which I think is an indicator of how these guys use their participation and what they call multi stakeholder dialogs They love to go to Davos and engage in these earnest conversations about climate change and race and class and they just don't like to actually do anything They're not into sacrifice They're into finding win win solutions to every problem and using Davos to signal their virtue So many of us will talk openly about anything I mean I've been to Davos and seen.

"To have you here. Thanks so much for having me. And also with us is Emily Stewart, senior reporter at box, Emily. Thanks for being here. Thanks for having me All right. So Emily what companies have said something about the Texas law. Melissa is fairly short. Initially. What we did see, we're both magic group and Bumble, both of which are kind of dating companies based in Texas come out and talk about the law, saying that they would create funds to help people obtain abortions outside of the state of Texas that needed them. We also saw a response from lift and uber. Um now this is important because among those who can be considered to aid in a bet, um, abortion under this Texas law are uber and lyft drivers so uber and lift. We're putting a sort of position where they needed to speak out, and they have said that they will cover any costs for their driver's in the event that they are sued for aiding and abetting abortion. We saw Go. Daddy, which is a website hosts say that they would stop hosting a website where people could report people who are aiding and abetting abortions. And then, more recently, we also saw sales force CEO Marc Benioff tell their workers that they were going to help them get out of the state of Texas in the event that they wanted to leave the state. But beyond that, the reaction has been. You know, as you noted, pretty limited, Scott, help me to understand a bit about, um, sort of that recent story that I just told about, you know, sort of. From 2016 on we've seen a kind of corporate activism. On issues that frankly, you know, still are very much contentious in the public sphere. I think you know, HB two is a really great example of one. That is certainly not a settled set of opinions within, um within the US. Why am sort of relative corporate courage in those cases, but not here. I think I'm one point. I'm really surprised about, uh, silence on this issue, but on the other hand, I'm not. I mean, we have seen in the last five years, a trend of increasing corporate activism. Historically, that activism has been much about issues that are very directly tied to the economic impact of the business. But what we've seen the last five years is much less of a of a direct connection with this bill and the anti abortion bill. What's really surprising about the silence is, uh, one is it's counter this trend of speaking out, and we've seen so much activism. As you pointed out with the Racial justice in the last year or two, but also that almost two thirds of people and surveys are indicating that they wouldn't even consider a job in Texas because of this bill, which seems really contra against the economic interests of these organizations. But the reason I'm not surprised is that companies have historically they just don't want to touch religious issues. They really fear alienating any employees religious beliefs, and there's almost a tinge of irony here because companies for the last 18 months have been talking about the importance of creating an inclusive environment and this bill is embedded in the state that doesn't create a very inclusive environment. For many people, But on the other hand, they worry about taking a stance on that contentious religious issue will create a divide within their own organizations around religious beliefs, which they also want to avoid. So they're kind of stuck in a pretty tough bind right now. I'm Emily. I'm wondering if there are particular corporations in Texas, right who are were Texas based who you would have expected by now to have said something who haven't you know? I don't know if expected, But you know the day I was assigned this story by the editors, she said, your look and see which companies are responding to this abortion law, and I thought it would be an easy task. And so I reached out to some big names. You know American Airlines. A T and T Exxon 7 11 Valero DELL Technologies Oracle. These are companies that are based in Texas that probably employ a lot of women who will be affected by this one. A lot of these are companies that also have not sat out. Other issues you know, both American Airlines and Dell has spoken out about Texas is voting rights law. So they have waited on other issues there. But on this one, they've been pretty quiet. Are those companies primarily led by men? Emily? Yes. I mean, that is also part of it. Uh, Dan Primack Axios. One of the things that he noted, specifically with Match group and Bumble is that they are led by women and for women. This tends to be more of a personal issue than it is for men. And and so yes, there's a lot of these. You think about corporate America? What the C suite generally looks like who the CEO is, most of the time it is man. And so there is a sense here that maybe male CEOs, even if, on paper they support abortion. They don't feel it in the same way that perhaps a CEO is a woman would feel it. Scott. Obviously, corporations tend to feel things no matter who they're led by when it impacts that bottom line right and that that can be both, you know, Um, on this question, as you were saying about, you know, workers not even wanting to work in a state where that company is located, but it can also come from the power of social media pushing these companies. Companies who have had something to say on these other issues in this space. What would it take form a sort of consumer or or social media activism standpoint to maybe move some of these companies, so companies like to travel in herds. They want to safety of knowing that they're not the first to move on a contentious issue. So I think if you start to see more of a groundswell of either, Cos speaking out, I mean, right now, it's still is is too small to really create that. But you start to see more companies take action. You're all the sudden going to just open the floodgates, and I think you're going to see a lot more public activism and speaking as I think that's the first thing in terms of social media, I think if you can Kind of make connections on social media to the implications of what this bill is practically going to mean. I think it's still pretty abstract for people. People have a hard time processing and thinking about what the implications are going to be when it's just a lot. But if you start actually seeing some of this law get applied, and you have stories. Really emotional and difficult stories of people being hunted down by regular citizens to enforce provisions of this law. I think that's going to create a pretty strong emotional climate that's going to make silence increasingly difficult for at least a number of CEOs, and as they start speaking out, other companies are going to feel compelled that they need to follow and take a stance. Two. I'm wondering Emily about efficacy. I mean again, You know, the HB two story that I told is, you know, demonstrative of, you know, absolutely efficacious action on the part of corporations. That is, I mean, is the double A rather than a change of heart. The changed HB two in the state of North Carolina. But you know, we haven't For example, seeing the state of Georgia, you know, backpedaling on its voter restriction bills, So in short, what difference does it make? I mean, this is a space that I live in and think about a lot, Which is that actually, if American Airlines comes out and says anything, does it make a difference, But I do think it's important to draw attention to issues to talk about these things. You know, but at the same time Look at last year you got into this. How many? Um, company said something about the movement for black lives right now. Does that translate to who they are Hiring who? That who they're elevating within their organizations, Not necessarily. But I do think on this to me..
