Richard Tedlow is the Class of 1949 Professor of Business
Administration Emeritus at the Harvard Business School, where he
spent three decades teaching business history. Richard left HBS in
2010 to join the faculty of the new Apple University and retired in
2018. Earlier this year, he published The Emergence of Charismatic
Business Leadership, which is the subject of the show. Our
conversation covers Richard's background and lessons learned
teaching for four decades. We then turn to his latest tome,
discussing the American history of business leaders without
charisma, transitional period introducing charisma, and the modern
era of superstar CEOs. Along the way, we discuss the definition,
traits, downside, and future of charismatic business
leadership.
