  • Genuinely useful for anyone stepping into an interim role

    One of the most accurate accounts of the interim CEO job I've heard on a leadership podcast. The point about ambiguity being the biggest threat to an interim leader; and the need to get clarity on your mandate early, is exactly right. The advice on building trust by engaging beyond the top team is practical, not just theoretical. Emma, Efe, Aimee and Justus cover the realities of the role without the usual leadership-podcast fluff. Recommended for anyone on a board considering an interim appoin... more

A Foot on the Brake and a Foot on the Accelerator with Former PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi – Part 1
Q: How do you coach leadership teams about how much risk and how much transformation to take at what pace?
Nooyi says senior leaders and boards should educate themselves about AI, understand how it can be used in their organizations, and demonstrate its value through a few pilots before large-scale investment.
A Foot on the Brake and a Foot on the Accelerator with Former PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi – Part 1
Q: What made you undergo a transformation when it wasn't necessary?
Nooyi wanted to assess whether PepsiCo's strong performance could last for decades. Research into major trends revealed that health-conscious startup brands were taking growth and that the company needed to address product nutrition, water use, and plastic waste.
How CEOs Can Overcome Resistance to Transformation and Make Change Stick
Q: Sean, if transformation is a leadership challenge, what should CEOs be thinking about when trying to overcome resistance?
CEOs should recognize resistance comes in different forms—insight inertia, psychological inertia, and action inertia—and tailor responses to each, avoid imposing change, and actively involve a broader circle of leaders early to build conviction.
Lessons from a Catalyst CEO: How Jean-Pascal Tricoire Sparked a 20-Year Transformation at Schneider Electric
Q: What led you to assume the CEO role and pursue a bold transformation at Schneider Electric?
I believed the company needed to be future-proof, with a clear strategy around electrification and digitization, and I mobilized the organization, the board, and our customers to co-own the change while restructuring the leadership team to include diverse, challenging voices.
