How would you feel if CEOs told you & your family How to Vote? For me, it is an alarming trend.
UPDATE: After this post, CEOs have cut back on telling employees and customers how to vote, so Sandra is buying Unilever’s TRESemme and Dove products again 🙂
I read a post in Harvard Business Review about concerns with CEOs trying to influence how people vote There is even a PR research study on it. (Update: since this post there are articles in The Washington Post & the Naples Daily News on why “Consumers aren’t buying CEO Politics”). To me Politics, Business & Religion are three very different realms, and they should not tell each other what to do. I am very concerned by a trend I am seeing among a handful of mostly male Davos CEOs and today, on the day that the UK Votes on #Brexit I am speaking up. The Economist had a cover post recently about how people’s Freedom of Speech is under attack (even on social media) and how it is time to speak up. It is one thing if a CEO is asked by an employee or friend what their view is on a political or religious topic. It is quite another for CEOs to be tweeting or appearing in front of the media and telling employees and customers how to vote (one American banker threatened to take jobs away from the UK if they voted #Brexit and a California CEO has bullied US Governors, a female University President & NC’s Moms). Women executives have asked me to discuss this topic. WATCH my BREXIT VIDEO to UK-based Unilever CEO (he is one of my favorite CEOs but even he’s been tweeting how to vote on Brexit to his employees & customers (70% Women). They own Lever, Lipton, Dove, Axe, Hellmann’s & TreSemme. I highlight 5 Things people might want to know about Democracy. For the time being, I won’t be able to use their products as much as I really like his work on sustainability. It goes against my conscience. CLICK TO VIEW:

The theme for World Economic Forum in 2014 is THE RESHAPING OF THE WORLD. Sandra Rupp was placed on the THINKERS 50 Guru Radar list for the World’s Top Business Thinkers from 2011-13. She is Thought Leader on “The Yin & Yang of Leadership” and Anchor/Host of The Davos Woman Challenge inviting CEOs to appoint 30%+ women to their CEO Teams & interview with her on the topic of Leadership. Feminine Leadership + Masculine Leadership = 21st Century Success.
While just 7% of the world has a college degree, many graduates can’t find a job. We now have female CEOs of IBM, GM, HP, Pepsi, Yahoo, but some Davos men can’t find 30% ladies for their CEO Teams? My Question to male Davos CEOs: “What Does Leadership Look Like to You?”…. “I am now inviting all CEOs to join The Davos 30%+ Challenge. Many thanks to Unilever CEO Paul Polman & Citigroup CEO Michael Corbat for their CEO Team progress in 2013.”
Leaders, Media, Companies, Organizations, CEOs & CHROs who would like to help Sandra Rupp on the challenge please email: info@parthenonadvisors.com Sandra was a selected entrant in the Davos Debates in 2011 when she stated to World Economic Forum that “Investing in & Empowering The Feminine Leadership Style is the largest economic opportunity worldwide.” In 2012 her Davos Video Question to World Leaders on Board & CEO Team Inclusion was #1 in YouTube Votes on the Davos Channel. In 2013, her DAVOS MAN + WOMAN VIDEO was a Top 10 Video for #WEF per Eventifier. She has recently entered The Gates Foundation & Cannes Lions Cannes Chimera challenge to help eliminate extreme poverty off the planet.

Sandra Rupp is delighted to share her THINKERS 50 message for 2013 including highlights of the last two years: Did you know her Myers Briggs Type is a combination of Albert Einstein & Princess Diana?
LEADERS Many of you helped place me on the THINKERS50 GURU RADAR list for the world’s Top Business Thinkers in 2011. From Davos to Augusta to Cannes Lions to NACD and the Conference Board, I have spread the message of “The Yin & Yang of Leadership” ~ Feminine Leadership + Masculine Leadership = 21st Century Success. My videos have been Top Videos on Twitter & YouTube during these events thanks to many of you. I took this honor very seriously and for the last two years have worked diligently on Executive Coaching, Videos, Speaking & Social Media. WHY? Because status quo thinking about Women & Leadership (including books encouraging them to be more like men) is not working & will never work for the majority of women. That is why I have CHOSEN to take my thinking to VIDEOS & Multimedia. Indeed we must invest in women & men for who they are & embrace The Feminine Leadership Style in all its glory. My goal is to change the LOOK & FEEL of LEADERSHIP.
I believe that The Yin & Yang of Leadership is one of THE MOST IMPORTANT additions to Management Thinking in decades. Feminine Leadership + Masculine Leadership = 21st Century Success. I am honored that THINKERS 50 chose me for their Guru Radar list for the world’s top business thinkers from 2011-2013. I am so touched by all your notes & votes. Many thanks to fellow thinkers Don Tapscott, Bill George & Tom Peters for their support in the last two years! Yin + Yang.
With warm regards & gratitude from Sandra Rupp.

THE HIGHLY SENSITIVE LEADERS, Leaders for the 21st Century by Sandra Rupp, THINKERS 50 Guru Radar List
Posted by: Sandra Rupp on: January 15, 2013
FAVORITE QUOTE: “Great necessities call forth great leaders.” ~ ABIGAIL ADAMS
(Note: This post has been updated with a new video.) As we get ready to cover The World Economic Forum’s annual meeting at Davos, I wanted to introduce an important NEW TOPIC: THE HIGHLY SENSITIVE LEADERS : Leaders for the 21st Century. Did you know between 15 and 20% of people have a gene for being Highly Sensitive (HSPs)? For more on that topic check out the wonderful research and book by Dr. Elaine Aron. I am happy to share that I am an HSP. In this video I also discuss the HSS High Sensation Seeker and how some leaders are both HSS and HSP (that makes for a very interesting leader). Now I am currently working on a special video series to introduce the topic of THE HIGHLY SENSITIVE LEADERS, because I have coached and advised many people who fit this profile. Many Highly Sensitive Leaders are introverts on the Myers Briggs Test, however at least 30% are extroverted. They include both men and women. They are often intelligent, intuitive and creative. All are very important to Leadership in the 21st Century. Indeed our very survival will depend upon The HIGHLY SENSITIVE LEADERS. Interestingly they may not fit a 20th century style of Leadership, but they are increasingly leading 21st century companies. Two are my favorite billionaires, and many are the CEOs, Entrepreneurs and Leaders I most admire. It turns out Sensitivity is a good thing in Leaders. STAY TUNED for Davos 2013. The theme this year is RESILIENT DYNAMISM. To achieve this, I believe it will take some Highly Sensitive Leaders to get us through the challenges ahead, and I look forward to working with them this year.
