Bosses are under increasing pressure to take stances on social issues. How should they respond?

IT OUGHT to be a love-in. American companies support tax cuts and deregulation. As went to press, President Donald Trump was pushing the Senate to pass a sweeping, business-friendly tax reform. Instead, CEOs have reason to feel uneasy. In the first year of his presidency, executives have found themselves embroiled in public disputes with Mr Trump on everything from immigration to climate change. His advisory councils of business leaders have disbanded. The second year of his presidency is unlikely to be much smoother.
