Query:

Dear Friends Authority Magazine is starting a new series about

Agile Businesses: How Businesses Pivot and Stay Relevant In The
Face of Disruptive Technologies. Full description here
https://bit.ly/3fN6wqr

At Authority Magazine we ran a series about new disruptive
technologies. We would now like to focus on the other side of
the coin, "How Agile Businesses Pivot In The Face of Disruptive
Technologies".

New technologies have disrupted established industries. For
example, Airbnb disrupted the hospitality industry. How has the
hospitality industry pivoted to this disruption? TurboTax
disrupted the accounting industry. How has the accounting
industry pivoted tp this disruption? Uber has disrupted the
mobility industry. How has the mobility industry pivoted to this
disruption? Robinhood has disrupted the financial industry. How
has the financial industry responded to this disruption? Urgent
care clinics have disrupted the medical industry. How has the
medical community pivoted? And so on...

We would like to interview CEOs and business leaders from an
industry that is being impacted by a disruptive technology, and
hear their strategies about how to pivot and stay relevant. We
would particularly like to hear from leaders in any of the
industries mentioned above. (Hospitality , accounting, mobility
, finance, medical.)

The interview series will have two stages.

All of the full interviews will be published in Arianna
Huffington's Thrive Global and Authority Magazine, and they will
look like the following:

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-bog7@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: FiduciaryNews.com

Deadline: 9:00 PM EST - 14 December

Query:

The DOL has just issued a rule that retirement fiduciaries
cannot use proxy voting for non-pecuniary matters. This reflects
the input of investors and retirement savers. Please email your
answers to the following questions. PR folks, we cannot respond
to solicitations, so just have your clients email their answers
to us. Remember to restate the question and it's original number
before each answer:

1) Why do you think retirement savers are concerned about
fiduciaries using their assets to vote proxies?

2) In what ways can activists who try to influence companies via
the proxy process harm retirement savers?

3) The DOL has acted on this matter, yet for more than a decade
now, the SEC still requires Investment Advisers to vote all
proxies. Why (or why not) do you think the SEC should return to
its previous policy of requiring to focus only on financial
matters and not on proxy voting?

4) State your name, title, firm, and city/state location because
if we can't verify you your quote may not be included in the
article.

industry, or any specific environmental concerns the local
industry may address in the future.
