Description

							Corporations are the most powerful entities on the planet, and many have long records of unprecedented and unbridled environmental degradation and social transgressions. But because public companies are beholden to their shareholders, if you own stock, you have influence. And even if you own shares in a mutual fund or invest through a workplace-sponsored retirement account or 401(k), you can press corporations to be accountable for their actions. Large institutional investors have been doing this for years, and shareholder advocate Andrew Behar shows how individuals can do it too! Illustrated with inspiring stories of individuals who have gone up against corporate Goliaths and won, this book is designed to inform, inspire, and instruct investors about how to exercise their power to change the world.
