Valley Edition Interview: Business Author Bill George On Leadership; Volkswagen Scandal

Author and Harvard Business School Professor Bill George

Best-selling author Bill George is one of the country's top experts on corporate leadership. The former CEO of Medtronic and current faculty member of the Harvard Business School is author of the books Authentic Leadership and Discover Your True North. George will visit Fresno on Tuesday October 13th for an event at Fresno Pacific University. 

George joined us on Valley Edition to talk about the quest for authenticity in an era when so-called "charismatic" leaders are often in the headlines, about diversity in management teams in the global age, and about the current scandal involving Volkswagen.
