From Gui Loureiro, Regional CEO overseeing Walmex, Walmart Canada, and Walmart Chile, and his executive leadership coach Carlos Marin, this inspiring and practical book reveals how even the most successful leaders must be open to personal change in order to transform their companies.

In the midst of a successful year, visionary CEO Gui Loureiro decided that Walmexβ€”Walmart’s biggest division outside of the United Statesβ€”needed to make massive changes to turn the iconic company into a more data-driven, customer-centric business that would be competitive in our digital economy. The stakes were high: few companies the size of Walmex had ever attempted a transformation at such a magnitude of scale.

Reinventing the Leader is the turbulent story of how it happened that’s especially relevant in this age of globalization. Gui learns from Carlos that to change the company he must first transform his own leadership style. This candid book provides an insightful blueprint for any organisation’s success. Readers will learn:

  • The importance of connecting a transformation to a meaningful purpose
  • How any change brings risk but the biggest risk is not to change
  • The three crucial questions to ask team members to discern if they’re ready to contribute to a transformation
  • The power of telling the story of a transformation by showing its impact on customers
  • Why it’s necessary to listen attentively and embrace change independently of how successful you are

Today’s leaders are expected to inspire by sharing a vision based on purpose, not just profits. Loureiro and Marin’s enlightening account of self-discovery and business reinvention defines a fresh new approach to leadership for the future.
