Steward Leadership: Between Profits and Purpose

April 16, 2022

Rajeev is the CEO of Stewardship Asia Centre in Singapore, and Founder President of the Leadership Energy Consulting (LEC) Company in Seattle, WA. Author of many best seller books on Leadership including Open Source Leadership and a regular writer for Wall Street Journal and Forbes; he is an out-of-the-box thought leader on leadership, management and corporate governance.  Formerly, he has been Chief Learning Officer of both Coca-Cola and Morgan Stanley, and has held senior positions at American Express, HSBC and Goldman Sachs after starting his career as a banker and currency trader.

Growing up inspired by incredible leaders like Gandhi and Mandela, Rajeev felt disillusioned by the prevalent greed in the modern system. He noticed the idealism and enthusiasm of hundreds of starry-eyed young professionals quickly give way to cynicism, hopelessness and surrender. One of the key reasons for this as Rajeev ascribes is today we have "Too Many Bosses, Too Few Leaders." That inspired Rajeev to devote himself to the work of planting seeds for more purposeful and values-oriented business and leadership.
