I'm not familiar with the relevant case law, but perhaps corporations could be nerfed in ways that don't contradict the decision in question. By, for instance, imposing the demand that only half the board can be composed of representatives of the stockholders, while the other half is to be composed of members elected by the employees by secret ballot.

But oh, the hue and cry that would go up :-P
