S4-Ep2: Leaders Building On Moral Purpose to Create A Just World
Guests: Jorrit Volkers & George Papandreou
Jorrit talks about the leadership journey Deloitte is creating for people from entering the firm through their retirement. They developed a narrative about self, other and what is connecting the two. A few key points from the interview: 1. Deloitte is not picking one framework or theory but rather pulling from a range of theories that can be agile. 2. There are taking a significant focus on purpose and values. 3. Remote working is improved when people launch in person then move to remote working. The second speaker in this interview is George Papandreou, Former Prime Minister of Greece. He talks about his leadership journey in democracy. He discusses the opportunity to take ownership or our voice as citizens to shape our societies? He also talks about use and abuse of power and ethics of leadership. There is a shared theme between Jorrit and George talking about leadership purpose and ethics required in leadership. This theme serves as a foundation for creating a just world.
