“Between these pages are insights from CEOs who head companies spanning geography, size, and industry,” explained U.S. Bank’s President & CEO, Richard Davis, in the Letter from the Guest Editor. “Their collective experience and wisdom about running an ethics-anchored company are vast and should challenge your current thinking and future actions. It is a privilege to be Guest Editor to such a fine cast of editorial contributors and ethical leaders.”
“Companies continue to drive change around the globe but it is their leadership that sets the path for the organization,” advised Ethisphere’s Group Publisher, Ty Francis. “Thanks to the CEOs who have contributed, not just for their insights but for how they continue to move their companies (and oftentimes industries) forward under immense pressure and emerging risks. We want to highlight those companies and their leadership for what they are doing right and It is for this reason we will maintain The CEO Issue as an annually recurring theme.”

“Communicating the things you do well, the things you aspire to do better, and the challenges you need to overcome leads to openness and accountability,” acknowledged Hasbro President and CEO, Brian Goldner, in his article Who Are You Really? “It makes your relationships with stakeholders more consistent, trustworthy, and transparent. Because our stakeholders know we’re not just checking off the boxes when we work together.”
“We have seen countless examples where leadership not only drives performance, but creates jobs, enhances communities, and improves the quality of life around the world,” recounted Ethisphere’s CEO, Timothy Erblich. “In this, our second issue dedicated to the CEO, we continue to see examples of executive leadership as role models for their organization’s employees and stakeholders and know from our research how this can impact the greater good.”
