The Corporate Activist is a podcast that explores the role of the business sector in today's complex social and political landscape.

I’m Siri Khalsa and I have spent decades working across public and nonprofit business sectors, both in the US and internationally. I've always been driven by how business can do more and be a force for positive change in the world. I believe the business sector has a unique capacity to influence public opinion, drive public policy and change behaviour.

On The Corporate Activist, we will look at the role of the business sector from all angles, examine the benefits of engagement as well as the risks. I'll talk with a broad range of experts to get their perspectives, take an in-depth look at some case studies, as well as answer your questions on how you can best navigate these issues in your own business.
