1. You are the CEO of a publicly traded company that has decided to build a new campus for its corporate headquarters. The facilities will come with a state-of-the-art fitness center, food court, and other amenities. In order to choose the food options, you wish to choose businesses whose owners mirror your customer-base. Based on recent federal guidance about DEI, you are not allowed to prioritize businesses that may be minority-owned, even though most of your customers come from racially underrepresented backgrounds. How should the company balance its stakeholder relationships: try to prioritize diverse business owners, or simply put contracts out to bid without regard for the background of the businesses? Is there a difference? Does the company have any social responsibility towards its stakeholders and/or society at large in this fact pattern? Why or why not?
