What We've Learned About Leaders in 2020

The first episode of Leadership Next launched on March 17th, just as the COVID-19 pandemic was gearing up to wallop the U.S. Over the next nine months, Alan Murray and Ellen McGirt talked to CEOs of some of the world's largest companies about how they were making decisions during this difficult time. Because of course the difficulty didn't stop with a health crisis. It led to economic upheaval too. And, in the midst of that, the country faced a reckoning on racial justice spurred by the killing of George Floyd. Surprisingly, through it all, the leaders interviewed on this podcast maintained a commitment to stakeholder capitalism.

In this episode, Alan and Ellen are joined by Joe Ucuzoglu, the CEO of Deloitte and sponsor of Leadership Next. They revisit conversations with IBM's Ginni Rometty, Sanofi's Paul Hudson, Salesforce's Marc Benioff, and many others in order to uncover some of the big trends that emerged from Season One. And, they look ahead to 2021.
