Mission Control with Liana Downey - nonprofit leadership

Miscellaneous


We talk to Marya Besharov, Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior at the ILR School at Cornell University about how organisations balance social and financial tensions. We talk about non-profits trying to stay financially viable while fulfilling their mission, and publically-listed corporations like Whole Foods who have an obligation to generate shareholder value, while trying to deliver on strong social missions.
