Recommendation

This OZY original series covers CEOs from all over the world who are building unique businesses and finding unconventional success. These CEOs  – as profiled by Dan Peleschuk, Nick Dall, Molly Fosco and Justin Higginbottom – have relentless drive, savvy and talent, but none fit the traditional mold of the corporate leader. The selection of OZY profiles summarized here captures business leaders who are reinventing the role of CEO. Whether coding in Siberia, creating comics in China or asking restaurant employees to confront their inherent biases, they're remaking their industries and inspiring other unconventional leaders to pursue their dreams.
