Stanford CEO Summit - Enrique Lores | PayPal & HP

Most leaders get one big act. Enrique Lores is now on his second. With Enrique stepping in as CEO of PayPal, I am reminded of the first time I watched him reinvent a giant, legacy business at HP. Thirty years in, he was still acting like a curious young engineer in that famous garage, willing to obsolete his own “successful” product with a better one. When I asked him what he wished he had known earlier in his career, four themes stood out: • Let imagination be your only limit, and innovate relentlessly. • Challenge the status quo, even when you built it. • Marry bold vision with disciplined execution. • Know your values and refuse to compromise them. Enrique lives those principles. The question for all of us: which of these four will you double down on in your own leadership this year? #Leadership #CEOTransition #Innovation #DigitalTransformation #FutureOfWork
