Are You a Plumber or a Poet? AI, Purpose and Leadership With Harvard’s Ranjay Gulati

How can leaders engage people both rationally and emotionally? In this episode of Minds Worth Meeting, Whitney Jennings and Justin Louis sit down with Harvard Business School professor Ranjay Gulati. We talk about corporate purpose, artificial intelligence leadership and Ranjay shares the inspiring story of how his mother’s passion became a global success story.

In this episode:

• We talk about AI and why it’s vital for leaders to do something and learn rather than doing nothing and falling behind the competition.
