  • The Uber Board Deliberates: Is Good Governance Worth the Firing of an Entrepreneurial Founder? by BRUCE KOGUT *
    ID#190414 CU242 PUBLISHED ON MAY 13, 2019 The Uber Board Deliberates: Is Good Governance Worth the Firing of an Entrepreneurial Founder? BY BRUCE KOGUT * Introduction Uber Technologies, the privately held ride-sharing service and logistics platform, suffered a series of PR crises during 2017 that culminated in the resignation of Travis Kalanick, cofounder and longtime CEO. Kalanick was an acclaimed entrepreneur, building Uber from its local San Francisco roots to a worldwide enterprise in eight years, but he was also a habitual rule- breaker. 1 In an effort to put the recent past behind the company, the directors of Uber scheduled a board meeting for October 3, 2017, to vote on critical proposals from new CEO Dara Khosrowshahi that were focused essentially on one question: How should Uber be governed now that Kalanick had stepped down as CEO? Under Kalanick, Uber had grown to an estimated $69 billion in value by 2017, though plagued by scandal. The firm was accused of price gouging, false advertising, illegal operations, IP theft, sexual harassment cover-ups, and more.2 As Uber’s legal and PR turmoil increased, Kalanick was forced to resign as CEO, while retaining his directorship position on the nine- member board. His June 2017 resignation was hoped to calm the uproar, but it instead increased investor uncertainty. Some of the firm’s venture capital shareholders (VCs) marked down their Uber holdings by 15% (Vanguard, Principal Financial), while others raised the valuation by 10% (BlackRock).3 To restore Uber’s reputation and stabilize investor confidence, the board in August 2017 unanimously elected Dara Khosrowshahi as Uber’s next CEO.

    AAGrapevine YouTube Channel In 2017, the General Service Conference recommended “that AA Grapevine create a Google for Nonprofits ac- count limited to the YouTube Nonprofit Program.” AA Grapevine, Inc. is currently displaying content on the channel, consistent with AA principles and copyrights. The channel was first populated with AAWS’ engaging, Conference-approved PSA: “Doors”, an animated version of a member’s recorded story for the GV Audio Project and two behind-the-scenes clips from the plant where the magazines are printed. We have since added a timeline of the making of our Big Book as well as a discussion from one of our non-alcoholic Class A Trustees on the use of AA Grapevine in CPC (Cooperation with the profes- sional Community) work. Expansion of the AA Grapevine YouTube collection is in process, with the ultimate goal of hosting video content that may be of use or interest to members, the general public and the professional community. The first series will fall under the umbrella of “Explainer Videos” that will serve to convey useful information on various topics with the purpose of streamlining access to multi-media content. This has been launched with the release of ani- mated videos celebrating our 75 Year Anniversary in both English and Spanish. The “comments section” on the Youtube page are disabled.

    Anne Dufresne and Cédric Leterme APP WORKERS UNITED The struggle for rights in the gig economy © Michael Bakas EUROPEAN PARLIAMENTARY GROUP European Parliament, B-1047 Brussels, Belgium +32 (0)2 283 23 01 [email protected] www.left.eu January 2021 Going forward, you will see us more loudly advocate for new laws like Prop 22, which we believe strike the balance between preserving the flexibility that drivers value so much, while adding protections that all gig workers deserve …. It’s a priority for us to work with governments across the U.S. and the world to make this a reality” Dara Khosrowshahi, Uber CEO, 5 November 2020. “We have come here (in the European GA) to breathe new life into the sentiment of unity. Feeling like members of a community is what feeds into our strength, what allows us to stand up against this individualism that seems to be triumphing everywhere. It is the understanding that the root of all of our struggles is the same. This is why we have to fight together in the struggles we face, but also those facing all workers. It is only by standing shoulder to shoulder that we can feel part of this community”, IWGB Courier, at the beginning of the European GA, 25 October 2018. “The more complex the world, the more essential solidarity becomes, the harder it is to live with”. Edgar Morin, Penser l’Europe, 1987.
