Today, more than ever, exceptional leadership extends beyond strategy—it requires empathy, humility, authenticity, and ultimately, a very human approach. McKinsey’s latest book, The Journey of Leadership: How CEOs Learn to Lead from the Inside Out, helps leaders at all levels unlearn management and relearn how to be human. This USA Today national bestseller features never-before-heard reflections from leaders including Ed Bastian (CEO of Delta Air Lines), Makoto Uchida (CEO of Nissan Motor Corporation), Mark Fields (former CEO of Ford), Reeta Roy (CEO of Mastercard Foundation), and Stéphane Bancel (CEO of Moderna).
Among the ideas the book covers:
| | |
|
| | A more open, collaborative style of leadership. Today’s complex issues such as digital transformation, inflation, disrupted global supply chains, scarce talent, a lack of diversity, cybersecurity, and climate change are beyond the ability of any one person to master. | | | | |
| | The imperative for personal growth. Leadership is about more than those seemingly endless business-related tasks. It’s just as important to be aware of your values and shortcomings—so that you can first live up to your own standards and then lead others. | | | | |
| | A hidden benefit of technology. Generative AI tools can free up time for leaders to spend on human-centric leadership. They can also give constant feedback on the effectiveness of executives’ leadership styles. | | | | |
