On August 12, 2021, we spoke with Manu Meel of BridgeUSA to explore “Leveraging Millenial and Gen-Z Expectations for CPR.”

There is no doubt that companies are feeling the pressure to practice political responsibility, but the steps to do that aren’t so clear. Leaders must consider the desire of their stakeholders, but that is not a homogenous group. In this module, we examine the failures and successes of employee engagement, and how to balance political polarization.

In this module, we explore:

  • What is the opportunity for business to be part of a renewal of American democracy?
  • What could companies do internally and externally to launch a new era of CPR?

The Corporate Political Responsibility Taskforce (CPRT)’s Expert Dialogues are in-depth, recorded conversations with academic experts, stakeholder advocates and business practitioners to provide our members and other CPR champions with the expertise and context they need to develop principled, proactive CPR strategies.We invite those interested in a constructive, non-partisan, principles-based discussion.

BridgeUSA’s mission is to develop the next generation of engaged, informed, and constructive citizens, catalyzing the passion of the next generation to invest in the future of democracy by empowering young people to solve problems. We champion ideological diversity, promote a solution-oriented political culture, and teach constructive engagement in order to develop a generation of political leaders that value empathy and common purpose.

Strine and Lund argue that political spending hurts shareholder interests because it increases risks, is not transparent, and correlates with lower financial performance. They make the case that companies should either end all spending, obtain shareholder consent, or limit expenditures to PACs (which are strictly voluntary and have mandated disclosure).
