Explanation:

What James realized is that the company's operating strategy is very concentrated in the short term, basically concerned with profit. However, firms must have long-term strategies for their activities to continue and expand. A company that has a relevant role for the local community tends to gain prestige and consolidate a brand. This can be beneficial to the company in the long run and maximize its profits in the future. For example, if the company has a leading role in the city, it can get partnerships with the city, can get tax breaks in exchange for investments, among others.
