This week I have a special five-part podcast series where I am joined by Amii Barnard-Bahn to review some of the top business leadership failures of 2019. Today, we take a look at leadership failures from Goldman Sachs and the 1MDB corruption scandal. Some of the issues we explore in this podcast include:
- The Goldman Sachs/1MDB imbroglio is one largest geopolitical scandal of the decade and may well be for the 2020s as well.
- This matter featured widespread corruption in the level of controls circumvented, at the very top levels of leadership. A settlement seems close as Goldman Sachs has announced a reserve of over $2bn to resolve the matter.
- There is hope that new CEO David Solomon will initiate a major culture change.
