100 CEO PROJECT

100 CEO PROJECT

100 CEOs. 100 conversations. And one year that changed everything: 2020. Join us on an exploration of what it really means to lead through change. Because in business we prepare for the worst, not the unthinkable. Each episode presents candid thoughts, successes that moved the needle, powerful insights and stories that touch the heart. Each CEO has a distinct take on the year - from those who’ve overcome near-game-ending challenges to those who brought their humanity to the job and changed the role of corporate leadership forever.
