Value Investor?

I think Jack Ma got it right when he said first comes employees, second customers, third shareholders. People who run the biz are the ones that will make the difference.

This is why I hate Jack Ma and his typical s-chip mentality. Always employees(he being biggest employee of all) first and that's why we as shareholders are getting screwed. Look at Alibaba structure n it will raise all kinds of red flags but no one cares just like there will always be suckers for s-chips.

To me to earn a corp respect is an MNC that I worked for in which it is clearly spelt out why the company exist and it is for 4 stakeholders and not in order of priority.

1. employees
2. business partners ( customers, suppliers etc)
3. shareholders
4. community ( CSR, charity work etc)

The job of management is to balance each of these. Yes sometimes you might have to retrench people and other times you have to listen to shareholders to restructure the company.

sorry OT a bit, Monday blues

I might be a bit confuse. What your priority list different from Jack Ma's list? Only the extra item of community?
