Jensen, Jesse Isidor Straus Professor of Business Administration Emeritus at Harvard Business School, offers a short presentation emphasizing how being a leader and effective exercise of leadership not only leads to organizational success but to a high quality personal life.

Following the presentation there was an interactive panel discussion focusing on Jensen and his colleagues’ 11 years of research and course development.
