Description

Leadership is an endless topic and this time around Robert and Toby examine M&A Leadership at the CEO level.  Robert kicks off by giving two examples. #1 is a CEO who is a high-risk taker but has charmed the board, shareholders, and Wall Street with his daring acquisition strategy but is never seen to engage below the C suite level. #2 is a CEO who has a steady and consistent relationship with the board and shareholders but is also highly visible at operational levels and with customers.The question that Robert and Toby raise is which of these is the most important?  For many of our listeners, the answer is obvious but it does help to pause and question whether both examples have something missing and what can be done to strengthen both CEO's capabilities.Robert started this podcast recognizing a few leaders that he has worked with who have shown exceptional skills at every level of an organization, but we quickly accept that these people are very few and far between.  The hundreds of CEO's/Leadewrs who don't have this charismatic style must look elsewhere to compensate BUT they must not delegate. You'll see what we mean when the conversation gets underway.
