Rhett Power - Is A Leader’s Pursuit Of Celebrity Good For Business?

from The Indispensable Conversation · host James M. Kerr

People with an overriding desire to be widely known to strangers are different from those who primarily covet wealth and influence. Their fame-seeking behavior appears rooted in a desire for social acceptance, a longing for the existential reassurance promised by wide recognition.  My question to my guest Rhett power on this episode of The Indispensable Conversation is this: Is it good for business? Rhett is an executive Coach, Forbes Columnist and a Season 1 Cast Member of 4 Days  to Save the World (TV Series). This makes him the perfect guest to discuss the topic. Think headline seekers like Bezos, Musk and Branson and compare them to Buffett, Brin and Balmer -- they're all billionaires only some seek the spotlight.
