Today, I’m joined by Dr. Mary Crossan, and we're talking about The Character of a Leader. Mary is a Distinguished University Professor of Strategic Leadership at the Ivey Business School at Western University. In 2021, she was recognized on a global list, representing the top two percent of the most cited scientists in her discipline, and in 2023, she received the Lifetime Career Achievement Academy of Management Distinguished Educator award. Her research on leader character, organizational learning, strategic renewal, and improvisation is published in over 100 articles and books. Mary is co-author of The Character Compass, which offers a practical roadmap for implementing leader character in areas such as leadership development, strategy, purpose, culture-building, trust, executive recruitment, HR practices, and risk management. I’m excited to have her on the show to learn more about the importance of The Character of a Leader.
