227 Dan Draper - Leading a Complex Organization

Leadership and Business

The role of the CEO: In this particular case, it means leading a complex global organization. One with employees all over the world, interacting with a robust board, and countless other stakeholders. For Dan Draper, the CEO of S&P Dow Jones Indices, the job means that, and more. Earlier this month, Draper was the keynote speaker for “From Dog Street to Wall Street,” an annual event hosted by the Boehly Center for Excellence in Finance at William & Mary School of Business. Afterward, he joined us to discuss the many aspects of the CEO’s role, including stakeholder management, understanding the importance of data, and doing things the right way.
