How Leaders Lead with David Novak

#195: Charlie Scharf, CEO and President of Wells Fargo – Set the right example


Listen Later

Every leader casts a shadow. 


As a leader, you can’t just SAY what your priorities and values are (although that’s crucial).


You’ve got to set the example yourself, so your decisions and actions align with those priorities. 


To see how it’s done, listen to this conversation with Charlie Scharf, the CEO and President of Wells Fargo. He took over in 2019, which, as you may recall, was a real low point in the company.


Hit play now to hear how he’s leading the turnaround there — and why leaders can accomplish SO much more when they set the right example for their teams. 


You’ll also learn:

  • How to drive change in a culture of complacency
  • The key factor most people overlook in a turnaround
  • What really defines your culture (it’s not what you think)
  • Why it’s OK if your career path isn’t a straight line

  • Take your learning further. Get proven leadership advice from these (free!) resources:
