Silicon Valley is getting away with a lot of bad behavior. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is often seen as a band-aid for the wound that is bad press exposing a toxic culture.

This solo talk will discuss how to incentivize change as you innovate, and how to plug into a society outside of a cushy Valley office.
