Fortune Global Forum 2024 Tuesday, November 12, 2024 New York, NY 2:25–2:55 PM TRUST AND TEAMWORK: A CEO PLAYBOOK In this exclusive closing conversation, football legend Tom Brady and Harvard Business School professor and leadership expert, Nitin Nohria, will discuss a key set of principles that business leaders can apply to help teams work together toward common goals–from creating a “culture of 100% effort” to recognizing unsung heroes and identifying motivational levers. As business leaders themselves, they also have unique insights on the trends that are shaping the world of business (and sports) today. Whether on the field or factory floor, in the classroom or the office, they’ll share why trust and teamwork is the secret to winning the game.
