The show & the host

The show

Imperfect Leaders is a series of conversations with the country's most powerful leaders — founders, CEOs, university deans, physicians, philanthropists and NBA coaches — all of whom are willing to be totally vulnerable. The premise is simple: there is no such thing as a perfect leader. The guests talk about their imperfections, and how those imperfections made them better at leading.
