With local and national midterm elections approaching, a question on many professionals’ minds is how to balance personal political beliefs and advocacy with business demands. How does one have time to be an activist or advocate for a cause dear to them? How does that work or not with their company’s and/or clients’ beliefs? What are the emerging trends in corporate America? Are we seeing a shift where companies are increasingly speaking out about issues from student debt to gun control through advertising campaigns, philanthropic contributions, and other means?
The discussion will feature the following moderator and panelists:
- Marcela Garcia, Boston Globe (moderator)
- Linda Dorcena Forry, Suffolk
- Barbara Cottam, Citizens Financial Group
- Melissa Levy, Digitas
