"If it is clear who has been harmed by free trade, it is equally apparent who has prospered the most: multinational companies that have moved operations abroad and their financiers." Read @RWartzman on Trump's tariffs: zps.la/4cA0Xcs

"As tariffs dominate the headlines, [Trump's] administration is quietly putting into place what can best be described as an anti-worker agenda," writes @rwartzman. And the tariffs themselves? They won't help workers, either: zps.la/4cA0Xcs

Tariffs gave us U.S.-built pickup trucks and made South Korea an industrial powerhouse. But they're not a magic bullet that brings back jobs—especially not when they're levied indiscriminately: zps.la/4cA0Xcs

Younger people, take note: An honest day's work for an honest day's pay is dignified, period.

@RWartzman Wartzman's latest @WSJ piece spotlights a company you've likely never heard of, yet it has an enormous footprint: @Prologis , the world's largest industrial property company. What's most remarkable is Prologis's consistently high ranking for employee engagement in the WSJ Management Top 250 list. Their success stems from empowering employees with real authority regardless of rank, including rotating middle managers in high-stakes investment committees, and fostering an environment where even newer team members feel like they're trusted experts. CEO Hamid Moghadam's direct communication style and skin in the game (never selling shares) set the tone. I'm grateful to Rick for our conversation about why, sadly, such progressive practices remain rare--and what to do about it (hint: it takes real conviction and perseverance). wsj.com/business/prolo…
