Freedom, Risk, Responsibility: What Lies Behind a Corporate Success Story

Face to face with Harold KORELL, Chairman of the Board of Southwestern Energy.

The business and corporate worlds have become dominated by policies. Has the increasing proliferation of regulations and risk-management directives displaced personal responsibility and risk, which are always implied in free human relationships? How can employers and employees be truly free in the current business environment? The trajectory of Mr. Korell’s business story, his courage to bet on his own desires, and his willingness to face concrete challenges, is a striking example of how the human element is ultimately more important than any kind of “policies” or rule. It also demonstrates that his way of approaching work values the role of human freedom.  He will share through a public conversation the role that freedom plays in his work and life.
