  Who are the men and women who have made it to the very top of the business world? How did they get where they are? How do they run their giant corporations? What do they think about their roles in the global market? To find out, Jeffrey Garten has talked one-to-one with over thirty of the world's most powerful business leaders - from Sir John Browne of BP-Amoco, Michael Dell of Dell Computer Corporation and Martin Sorrell of WPP to Hiroshi Okuda of Toyota. His interviews tap into the mindset of these corporate titans to give us a fascinating picture of the global economy. We discover the CEOs, views on subjects ranging from the Internet to emerging world markets, from leadership skills to what keeps them awake at night. And at a time when - for better or worse - the power of big corporations dwarfs that of governments, Jeffrey Garten assesses how concerned business leaders are with their broader social responsibilities as well as their short-term goals.
