| Quick, what’s one word you’d use to describe a leader you admire? “Charismatic” or “bold” might spring to mind—but what about “humble” or “resilient”? These traits are crucial, say the authors of McKinsey’s forthcoming CEO Excellence book (available to preorder), in the latest Inside the Strategy Room podcast episode. The lively conversation with Carolyn Dewar, Scott Keller, and Vik Malhotra highlights leadership lessons from nearly 70 CEOs, with insight on the practices and mindsets that set the best CEOs apart, touching on everything from managing through the pandemic and other crises to making big strategic bets. Don’t miss it. |
