Introduction
Leadership is my passion. In my 35 years of leadership in companies whose success is anchored in creativity and innovation, I have developed strong views on what matters most: creating environments where risk-taking is encouraged; listening deeply; practicing patience and humanity; empowering people by giving them space; and understanding that failure is an inevitable stop on the path to success.
Society is looking to corporate leaders like you to expand the scope of your responsibility. The very purpose of the corporation is shifting from maximizing shareholder value to promoting an economy that serves multiple constituencies, including employees, customers, suppliers, shareholders, and the community. I believe that such a tectonic shift requires you to be braver, more astute, and more enlightened than ever before.
As a leader and an enthusiastic observer of business and of leadership, I believe that companies must focus on two critical areas: creating an ecosystem that promotes a robust, consistent, and aligned leadership culture (in other words, carefully connecting all the dots that define their approach to leadership) and ensuring the development of all individual leaders to their fullest potential.
Companies that seize this moment will be able to leverage great leadership as a competitive advantage in new and powerful ways and will generate outstanding creativity and innovation.
