Short YouTube video clip (Salesforce: Equal Pay) featuring remarks by Salesforce CEO (Mark) and another speaker emphasizing corporate social activism and equal pay. The speakers describe internal action at Salesforce to review pay, call for CEOs to stand for equality, and use the slogan "Equal work, equal pay."
The CEO of cloud computing giant Salesforce, believes that corporate social activism is not bad for business.
The business of business is to improve the state of the world. Like Salesforce, there are businesses that are doing the right thing. Two of our very strong women in our company came in and said, you need to make sure we're being paid the same as men.
He said, go take a look. And we did. We could not have done this without him. We applaud Mark's dedication to close the diversity gap on equal pay and equal rights.
Now is the time that we have to find what it is that we can really do to move the world forward.
Mark has led the way. Equal work, equal pay.
As a CEO, you have a responsibility to say, I stand for equality.
And women in America need their political and corporate leaders to follow this example.
We have to do better. That's not marketing. That's Mark. This is the kind of company we want to work in, that we believe in, and that we're trying to inspire around the world.
