When you're doing transformations, if the CEO is not a student of what needs to happen...and can communicate the need for the transformation, the story behind the transformation to the employees, with great conviction and committment, you cannot affect a transformation."

-Indra Nooyi, Amazon Board Member and former PepsiCo CEO
