Edward Felsenthal , Ken Frazier and Ken Chenault speak onstage during the 2024 TIME100 Summit at Jazz at Lincoln Center on April 24, 2024 in New York City.n 2021, troubled by a law change in Georgia that could restrict voting access, business leaders Ken Chenault and Ken Frazier partnered to gather the support of U.S. executives to take a stand.
The pair, who were jokingly introduced at the start of the discussion, entitled Finding Hope in Opportunity, by TIME’s Executive Chairman and former Editor-in-Chief Edward Felsenthal as “the original Kens,” after an interview withdirector Greta Gerwig was screened at the event, discussed how to find common ground in such politically polarized times, and why diversity, equity, and inclusion is more than just a buzz phrase in the workplace.
“The big challenge that we face in a polarized world is to be able to communicate with people,” says Frazier. “You can't possibly construct an effective argument to change someone's mind, if you don't understand how they think,” he said. He added that appealing to the remaining “shared values” of Americans, regardless of political leanings, is essential to find common ground.
