Economic Times · 2m

Former President Donald Trump urged Apple to eliminate its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies after shareholders voted to retain them. Trump criticized DEI initiatives as discriminatory and detrimental. He previously issued an executive order ending DEI efforts in federal and private sectors. Apple's CEO, Tim Cook, defended DEI, emphasizing innovation through diversity and collaboration but acknowledged potential adjustments due to legal changes. The vote reflected ongoing debates on DEI's role in corporate America.
