Article by Dr. Norbert Taubken, Kai Michael Bergmann and Markus Scholz for the BOARD magazine of the Arbeitskreis deutscher Aufsichtsrat e.V.
Trump and Co. are challenging the world order - companies must react. Long-term strategic partnerships are faltering, climate protection is becoming less important, the rules-based economic order is under pressure and the open society is in danger.
Together with Dr. Norbert Taubken and Kai Michael Beckmann, Markus Scholz discusses why companies need to rethink their role as corporate citizens and what special function supervisory boards have in this regard. In particular, the focus is on questions of legitimacy, the position of companies on socio-political risks and the responsibility of companies within society as corporate citizens.
