As AI gets smarter, does human leadership become less important or more? In this landmark episode of The Leadership Enigma, host Adam Pacifico launches the first-ever Global Human Centered Leadership Index, joined by two exceptional former CEOs: Angela Cretu (former Global CEO, Avon Cosmetics) and Tiger Tyagarajan (former CEO, Genpact).
After six years and 300+ conversations with world-class leaders, Adam has identified eight dimensions that define human-centered leadership: vulnerability, inclusivity, humility, empathy, personal purpose, presence, care, and curiosity. In this episode, Angela and Tiger unpack which of these matter most in a world being reshaped by Artificial Intelligence.
In this conversation, you’ll discover:
âś… Why AI frees leaders to spend more time asking questions instead of just finding answers
âś… How curiosity, humility, and vulnerability are deeply interconnected
✅ Why “stability” is the wrong goal for leaders and what to build instead
âś… How trust becomes the new currency in an AI-powered world
✅ Why presence isn’t about how you walk into a room it’s about how you make others feel valuable
âś… The leadership dimension both CEOs found hardest to master
Whether you’re a founder, executive, entrepreneur, or aspiring leader, this episode challenges you to rethink what leadership means when machines can match but never replace human judgment, values, and connection.
