Take Command: A Leadership Podcast · 2024-10-08 · 36 min
About the Guest: Meet Gary Shapiro, CEO of the Consumer Technology Association. For the last 35 years, he’s been responsible for over 4,000 vendors and 130,000 guests each year at CES, the largest consumer electronics tradeshow on the planet. He’s a lawyer, a runner, a leader, and he was also awarded the Légion d'Honneur (Legion of Honor) by French President Emmanuel Macron in 2021. Not only that, Gary is already a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author with a new book, Pivot or Die , releasing October 2024. “We're all humans fundamentally,” Gary says. “I think, in a way, Covid inspired me to write Pivot or Die because Covid was something we in the world shared as humans.” Despite admitting it’s one of the leadership areas he’s always working on, Gary writes about the importance of empathy and strong human relationships to allow businesses to pivot on a dime when the time comes. Hear all about Gary’s new book and the leadership lessons he’s learned along the way that will make you a stronger leader in turn.
