Strong leadership demands experience and functional expertise. But it also requires flexibility and a willingness to learn from others — even those outside your industry. In this edition of Empowering Leaders, we explore how board chairs and CEOs can build trust-based relationships, share an excerpt from our recently released book, The Life Cycle of a CEO, and examine what publicly traded and private equity-owned companies can learn from each other.

What issues are top of mind for leaders? We explored this question in detail during a recent event where our Tokyo team had the pleasure of hosting more than 19 global leaders at the Palace Hotel in Tokyo. Rohit Kale, Spencer Stuart’s head of Asia Pacific, shared insights from our Measure of Leadership survey, highlighting what CEOs are thinking about, including succession planning, leadership development, the globalization of leadership and culture, diversity and inclusion.
