Podcast: A Harvard Case Study of Truly Human Leadership

Quite a few years ago, Harvard Business School wrote a case study on a very remarkable time in Barry-Wehmiller’s history.

If you’ve read Everybody Matters, you’ll recall it was about a period in the 1980’s when we made some very important financial decisions that ultimately transformed our company.

Fast forward to today. Recently, Harvard Business School decided Barry-Wehmiller was a good subject for a case study again. This time, however, it was about how our views of responsibility for our people impact our business.

The authors of the case study, Jan Rivkin and Dylan Minor, are featured on this week’s episode of the Everybody Matters podcast.

They talk about the case study method of teaching, why they chose Barry-Wehmiller as a subject, how business school students are responding to people-centric principles and how Truly Human Leadership might apply in our current business and political climate.
