“ALTHOUGH THERE MAY BE AN
OFFICIAL ORG CHART, THERE IS ALSO

Canadian-born Adam Bryant started the Corner Office
column in 2009 for the New York Times’ Sunday Business
section, and the series has attracted a tremendous
audience and was converted into a best-selling book of
the same name. Recently, I interviewed Adam to gain his insight
into the pathway to senior leadership excellence as well as learn
more about the role of HR within this framework.
