Adam Bryant

Advisors

A veteran journalist, author and managing director of Merryck & Co., Bryant brings a wealth of real-world insights on leadership to the senior advisor role. He is the creator of the “Corner Office” column in The New York Times, and interviewed more than 500 CEOs over a decade about the most important leadership lessons they had learned, and how they had worked to build high-performing teams and cultures. Bryant has written two books based on the themes that emerged from those interviews: The Corner Office: Indispensable and Unexpected Lessons from CEOs on How to Lead and Succeed, which was a New York Times best-seller, and Quick and Nimble: Lessons from Leading CEOs on How to Create a Culture of Innovation. Since 2017, he has been managing director of Merryck & Co., an executive mentoring and senior leadership development firm, working with C-suite leaders of multinational corporations.
