Can marketing transcend traditional business goals and actually be a force for good?

(This conversation was hosted by TED's Whitney Pennington Rodgers.) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The option to work from home means that work truly works for everyone, says Avani Prabhakar, chief people officer of a large tech company.
