HBR IdeaCast
REID HOFFMAN: So, obviously, it’s complicated in its different circumstances, but I do think that one of the things that’s really important for business leaders to do is to think broadly about what their responsibilities are as leaders of this business because businesses are not just these little abstract profit generation machines. So, articulating what kinds of things are good for the health of business, and I tend to find business leaders who say that the only really relevant variable is corporate tax level or tax level are clearly very narrow-minded in what they’re … the only variable. ALISON BEARD: That was Reid Hoffman, the co-founder of LinkedIn and Inflection AI, in conversation with HBR editor-in-chief Adi Ignatius at our Future of Business virtual conference.
