How can we leverage CEOs’ power to create a sense of shared purpose?<br /> Discussion Leaders:<br /> Chano Fernandez, Co-chief Executive Officer, Workday<br /> Tamara Lundgren, Chairman and CEO, Schnitzer Steel Industries<br /> Brian Moynihan, Chairman and CEO, Bank of America<br /> Penny Pennington, Managing Partner, Edward Jones<br /> Moderator: Alan Murray, FORTUNE<br /> Photographs by Rebecca Greenfield/FortuneConferences
