  • With some multinational corporations the size of medium-sized economies, they are often richer and more powerful than the nations that seek to control them. Rapid corporate and financial market deregulation and globalization since the 1980s has allowed such firms to build broader and deeper international networks of markets and operations. Today, these companies have significant impact globally, including on: consumption, raw materials, economic growth, employment, capital flows, trade, politics, the environment and even popular culture.  Yet many of these companies have seemed to be decoupled from the economies and societies in which they operate and sell their products and services. However there are huge and increasingpressures on corporations – whether or not good citizens – to actively address the needs of all their stakeholders and to become involved in the key challenges facing society, including climate change, poverty, health and resource management. As more companies embrace the new reality, their influence  and that of their leaders will increase relative to other shapers and influencers. These companies include those led by the eclectic mix of business leaders we profile in this report.  While they demonstrate very different leadership styles and approaches to business, but all have and will have a significant influence on the world in which we live and operate.
