At Walgreens, a CEO Caught in the Venn Diagram of Medicine, Politics and Profits

Steve Sauerwald, Associate Professor of Managerial Studies, was quoted in a WBEZ Chicago article that details the criticism Walgreens received after news broke that the Deerfield-based company was scuttling plans to sell an abortion pill in 21 states.

Brewer, who has held the top spot for two years, is one of only about 50 women currently leading a Fortune 500 company.
