Robert E. Siegel, Stanford Graduate School of Business professor, venture capitalist, and former executive, shares the leadership lessons he learned working with Intel’s legendary CEO, Andy Grove, and other amazing leaders, and how to thrive in today’s era of conflicting pressures.

In this in-depth conversation, we explore the concept of the systems leader, someone who can innovate while delivering results, balance global and local priorities, and combine decisiveness with humility. Drawing from his work with leading CEOs, his investing career, and his experiences in fast-moving industries, Robert explains how leaders can adapt and stay relevant, even as AI, economic shifts, and political uncertainty reshape the business world.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How Andy Grove influenced Robert’s approach to leadership and decision-making

  • Why the most effective leaders thrive in environments of “cross-pressures”

  • Practical steps for staying relevant as technology and AI transform industries

  • The importance of balancing execution with long-term vision

  • Stories from Robert’s career as an operator, investor, and Stanford professor
