But these are all highly controversial subjects, and, when you stand up front, you will be criticized. That is the price of leadership.

I believe the shareholders own the corporation. Now people talk about stakeholders, and some people will mention fifteen, twenty constituencies. Now, if I name enough constituencies, I m going to get something right for someone. If I break my watch right now, it s right twice a day. Now, if you run a good corporation for the shareholders who take the risk, you will, by definition, generate value, have the best people, the best factories.
