In True North: Emerging Leaders Edition, renowned leadership expert Bill George and Millennial tech entrepreneur Zach Clayton issue the challenge to emerging leaders—from Gen X to Millennials and Gen Z—to lead their organizations authentically through never-ending crises to make this world a better place for everyone.
The Emerging Leaders Edition is filled with stories from successful leaders such as Microsoft's Satya Nadella and Merck's Ken Frazier to PepsiCo's Indra Nooyi and General Motors' Mary Barra, and emerging leaders like OneTrust's Kabir Barday and Kanbrick's Tracy Britt Cool on how they overcame great challenges to build highly successful organizations.
The book offers concrete suggestions for: becoming an authentic leader, equipped to lead inclusively with moral clarity through challenges and crises; cultivating regular introspection to ground yourself with self-awareness, live your values, and use your unique strengths; integrating all aspects of your life—including who you are at home, at work, and in the community; understanding how Millennials are leading more effectively in today's world; being an inclusive leader prepared to take on fraught issues like stakeholder challenges, racial and sexual equality, and sexual misconduct; and knowing when—and how—leaders should speak out on today's complex public issues.

However the authors take moral, ethics and making the world a better place to an extreme by basically recommending to sacrifice business outcomes, growth and ambition for the sake of making the world a better place. In 2023 when the growth at all costs strategy is replaced with moving to profitability and sustainability the recommendations provided in the book could easily cost leaders their jobs. Also, many leaders mentioned in this book and whose business practices were praised made quite questionable decisions in 2022-2023 which led to thousands of people being laid off.
That said, to me, especially in the current economy a noticeable portion of the book was the “what not to do” guide
