Authentic spontaneous discussions on how CEOs are leading through changing times, these interviews are recorded in one take and left unedited.
One Take interviews began in June 2020 for Minnesota CEOs to share their take on how best to lead during the COVID-19 pandemic and its unprecedented impact on their operations, and the economy. All interviews can be watched or listened to for free. And beginning in 2021, each video interview provided chapters for viewers to jump to should they not have time to watch the entire interview (you’ll find these chapters in the interview’s YouTube description box under “show more.”).
For all of the videos, go to this link on You Tube, or to listen go to either this link on Spotify or this link on Apple Podcasts.
