內容大綱
One of only a handful of African-American CEOs in the Fortune 500, Frazier gained widespread attention when he withdrew from President Trump's business advisory council after the events of August 2017 in Charlottesville, Virginia. He says, "I didn't see this as a political issue. It's an issue that goes to our fundamental values as a country." Frazier grew up in the inner city, in a household that valued education highly. He was fortunate, he says, to be bused out of his neighborhood to "the best schools in Philadelphia," which he credits with closing "the opportunity gap" for him. Despite a degree from Harvard Law School, however, he had to work to become "user-friendly" for the clients and partners at his white-shoe law firm. In this conversation with HBR's editor in chief, Frazier talks about balancing short-term pressures with long-term needs, the dauntingly high percentage of research projects that fail, the rationale for pricing lifesaving drugs so high, and the importance for a CEO of diffusing power "to people in a position to make a difference."
