Beginner's Mind (Christian Soschner) EP 180 — 'If you go to your local park, you'll find trees older than shareholder primacy'

Christian Soschner — biotech investor and Beginner's Mind host — releases a full-hour Eric interview walking through why shareholder primacy is a recent legal theory, how 'any lawful act or activity' erased corporate purpose, what actually killed Sears (a CEO who extracted $1.5B from himself while the company lost $11B), and why foundation-owned companies (Novo Nordisk, Patagonia, IKEA, Grundfos) outlive competitors. Ends on the turtles-all-the-way-down question of who guards the guardian.
