  • How that helped him and where it has not
  • Leading during a crisis…What did the Russell Reynolds partners notice in terms of leadership and how it is showed up in the C suite?
  • What is emerging in 2022 as being important that we might have underestimated in the past?
  • His thoughts on not being able to give certainty to people who are craving that. How do leaders give their teams a sense of – “here is what you can control….”
