Corporate Integrity Project
- Corporate Integrity Project
The Corporate Integrity Project is a project of the National Legal and Policy Center which "seeks to promote integrity in corporate governance, including honesty and fair play in relationships with shareholders, employees, business partners and customers." It does so by:
*Asserting that the social responsibility of the corporation is to defend and advance the interests of the people who own the company, the shareholders. True responsibility is fidelity to one’s own mission, not someone else’s, or someone else’s political agenda.
*Exposing the seeking of influence on public officials by corporations, which is the inevitable result of high levels of government spending and intervention in the marketplace.
*Combating practices that undermine the free enterprise system, including philanthropic giving to groups hostile to a free economy.
Campaigns
The Corporate Integrity Project has led campaigns against:
*Boeing
*CBS/Viacom
*Fannie Mae
*MCI/Worldcom
*Subway
For practices ranging from large corporate scandals to anti-American campaigns. The scandals they have unearthed have led to the firing of Boeing CFO Michael M. Sears, the resignation of Boeing CEO Phil Condit, and prison terms in 2005 for both Darleen Druyun and Michael Sears.
