WAY TO GROW
WITH ITS PROSPERITY
HUBS, INTUIT EMPOWERS
UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES.

Intuit has been investing in what it calls
“prosperity hubs” in small towns in West
Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee and else-
where. The company trains workers there
in supporting QuickBooks, TurboTax and
Mint, creating a virtuous cycle: The work-
ers get paid above market-rate salaries
and spur economic growth in rural Amer-
ica. “We’re on a mission to power pros-
perity around the world, especially for
those who need it most,” says CEO Sasan
Goodarzi. “We can create a profound
ripple effect that inspires even great-
er impact on the world around us.” The
program has already created 1,500 jobs,
and the company says it will create 1,500
more as it expands to new places and
new underrepresented groups, including
military families.

Customer Treatment
With many of its Sil-
icon Valley peers
under fire for pri-
vacy breaches and
plummeting consum-
er trust, Apple has
taken a different tack,
strengthening what
was already an im-
pressive approach to
data security. It pub-
lishes biannual reports
on the volume of cus-
tomer-data requests
received from gov-
ernments around the
world, and a recent
update to its mobile
software added a pri-
vacy icon—two people
shaking hands—to in-
dicate when an app is
collecting personal in-
formation.
