Alex Edmans is Professor of Finance at London Business School, Academic Director of the Centre for Corporate Governance, and author of “Grow the Pie: How Great Companies Deliver Both Purpose and Profit”. In this podcast series, Alex explores the complex challenges facing responsible business, with Tom Gosling, Executive Fellow in the Centre for Corporate Governance at London Business School. In this episode Tom and Alex dig into evidence – beginning with how to distinguish it from data, using it to consider alternative explanations and avoiding cognitive bias. Together they investigate what evidence tells us about the relationship between responsible business and performance, and crucially, what the counter evidence can teach us.
