About this episode
This episode explores how Friends Fiduciary is influencing corporations to prioritize humanity over profits using Quaker principles.

But while activists are calling for change from the outside, another movement is quietly working to steer these massive organizations from within. Discover how Friends Fiduciary is taking a seat at the shareholders’ table, using Quaker values to persuade global brands to put humanity over quick profits.
