Episode 17 - Charles Bennett - Leadership Expert, HEC Paris Adjunct Professor in International Leadership

In episode 17 of The Exit Strategy, we have Charles Bennett, an adjunct professor of leadership and executive coach. He has taught the topic of leadership for many years and expresses how its definition differs. 
Charles Bennett clearly identifies how leadership styles differ in the USA vs. France, and Charles goes through his experience of working at Cartier in North America and France, and despite it being the same company, the leadership was quite different. Charles believes that leadership is and could be a title but at times a leader rises to the occasion, and that leader could be more impactful. 
Leadership in the USA is seen as you either have it or you don’t but in France leadership is bestowed and granted to the person.  Swatick discusses his experience dealing with leadership in India, and how leadership was less delegated compared to the USA and especially France. Ralph, being one of the founders of Chatsworth, has seen how leadership has changed significantly since the foundation of the organization. 
Elon must is a great example of how you could be in the same country, start SpaceX, and Tesla, and become the leader of Twitter, and what skills are important in leadership in various industries even within the same country. 
Charles working at the greatest educational intuitions in France sees how leadership changes through going through educational training and implementing those skills in real-life situations providing confidence by putting the mirror in front of them to honor and own the success of their careers.
