The author of Giants of Enterprise examines the evolving role of
business leaders in the 21st century—with essential lessons from
today's trailblazers. In The Emergence of Charismatic Business
Leadership, Harvard Business School Emeritus professor Richard S.
Tedlow reveals how a handful of individuals have transformed
modern-day leadership, making charisma essential to the role. He looks
at leaders like Oprah Winfrey, Elon Musk, and Steve Jobs: three
pioneers who found success by innovating their management style and
using their charisma to champion their vision. Through Tedlow's
in-depth accounts of modern business history, we see how former
outsiders attain power and influence, and how charismatic leadership
enables the creation of revolutionary products like the battery
electric vehicle and the smart phone. But Tedlow also considers the
careers of people who used their charisma to mislead, such as Jeff
Skilling of Enron and Elizabeth Holmes of Theranos. In this thorough
examination, Tedlow shows how charisma, when combined with genuine
character, can get you far.
