It’s all cool and noble as long as you own the company and make all decisions. Once you sell your shares to individuals and funds from the other side of the world, you lose that control. And new owners are only concerned about their profits and may not even be aware of what kind of business backs up their dividends.

You would need to remove the legal requirement that publicly traded companies need to be making decisions that benefit shareholders. Without that, even the best intentions will fall to legal mandates of minmaxing profits for investors.
@meanderinoranges

The legal requirement isn’t necessary in the first place. Shareholders will always sell shares in a company that doesn’t prioritize profits, and buy shares in a company that does.

Not remove, people do need to be protected from predatory investment bankers. It just needs to be… adjusted. Like a “Decaying rate of return” so investment bankers are pushed to reach for a profit when returns are low, not in percentage points mind you, but in hard numbers. However once the return surpasses the countries average personal income. That mandate falls off.

Or how about benefit the world AND have infinite growth?
Anyways, an organization that isn’t for-profit is, pretty frankly, a not-for-profit organization.
They already exist, and you can definitely start one yourself.
The problem is, to benefit the world, you need massive amount of money. That’s because the cheap stuff has already been done by other people and/or other not-for-profits.
What you need to acknowledge is that, your issue begins with the investors, not the companies’ top management.
If you can somehow convince the investors to forego profit in order to benefit the world, go ahead.
But before that happens, don’t blame the companies for going for profit. It’s the investors’ fault for being in it only for money.

The root problem with her concept is that following politician’s lead for what is beneficial for the public is a recipe for disaster. The pandemic was a stark example of how this played out against humanity, with them feeding the public lies, manipulating the media on a grand scale and affecting the outcome negatively even though it was framed as a positive movement.
That’s not to say that companies can’t do better. They can, but the entire system is corrupt and rotten from the roots up and polishing an apple on a rotten tree won’t change the tree.

God loves you and takes care of you so that this message reaches you. God is the one who created this great universe and has complete control over it. And the greatest loss that a person loses in this life is that he lives while he does not know God who created him, knowing the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the messengers, and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions. The great intelligence, before you believe in something or not, is to read it, study it, and understand it well, and then you have the choice to believe in it or not. I advise you on this now before you do not have time to do that.

I like her message, but the reality is that the people doing business this way are the people already oriented toward the values being espoused here. In a talk about impact, preaching to the TED choir looks highly intentional. I’d be more interested in a conversation about how alternative incentive structures could influence those who don’t hold egalitarian values toward having socially beneficial impact.
