What defines a global leader?
There is no standard definition or magic formula to the term “global leader”. Every leader in various fields possesses unique abilities and styles. However, if there is a common element among them, wouldn’t you be curious to discover? While I don’t have the answer myself, I would love to explore the question with you. In this presentation, I will share my observations of different types of “global leaders” whom I encountered directly or indirectly through my work in the media. In addition, I will discuss how I have managed various teams, drawing from my humble professional experiences. I hope these insights will provide you with some hints as you navigate through the drastically changing times and strive to become a “global leader” who can adapt to the demands of the era.
