"Charismatic Leaders and Superstar CEOs: Do We Need Them?" Corporations all over the world are constantly hiring charismatic leaders and Superstar CEOs to lead their companies. Whether it is to find a successor, to improve performance, to turn it around or even to revive it, the quest continues relentlessly in the belief that CEOs who have succeeded in their previous companies can repeat their performance in the new companies they are hired. Why is this obsession with charismatic leaders and Superstar CEOs? What is the case for and against hiring them? How successful are the charismatic leaders and Superstar CEOs in their new companies? Are there risks in hiring them? Should companies hire charismatic leaders and Superstar CEOs from outside or develop leaders in house? A DISCUSSION - By Invitation Only - led by Professor Daniel Quinn Mills *Preceded by Buffet Dinner at 8.00 p.m. at Banquet Hall of the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club (KLGCC) Tuesday, 15 March 2005 Attire: Smart Casual
