"I think that we're at a moment in time in history where we have to try to actually understand people," she said. "It is better to listen to understand to try to understand who people are ... Try more to find more common ground." She looked about buying Twitter, but didn't do it because of her vision for the company. The interview airs on CNN's Red Eye every Sunday night from 8 p.m. ET/PT.
Kara has interviewed Salesforce CEO and co-founder Marc Benioff many times but he says she'd never been as prepared to grill him as she was this time. It’s a showdown between a savvy CEO who is deft at turning the tables…and an interviewer who is unafraid to pin him down. Taped in front of a live audience at the Upfront Summit, the two tackle whether Marc will be able to keep up the victory lap of a surprisingly strong earnings report, his succession plan, their divergent takes on a divisive Elon Musk – and why having activist investors breathing down his neck is “fun” for Benioff.
