Former CEO and Chair of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi, to Teach Strategic Leadership at Masterclass

T The former CEO of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi, will lead a class on leading with purpose on the streaming platform MasterClass. Learners who are interested can use the platform to learn from the best in the world in a variety of subjects. Participants in the MasterClass will learn how to simplify complex problems, lead with purpose, and persuade others to support their vision. Nooyi's class is currently the only one offered on MasterClass, where subscribers with an annual membership have unlimited access to all 150+ instructors.

David Rogier, CEO of Masterclass, commented on the course: "Indra teaches the leadership principles and business tactics that have helped her bring about innovative changes in the world food industry. She will assist participants in reorienting their thinking in ordinary circumstances and embracing their distinctive perspectives to effect change."

…although I will speak from my experience as a CEO in this class, the fundamental ideas apply to all types of businesses… I will also use PepsiCo's "Performance With Purpose" as the cornerstone to delineate strategic thinking, establish a course, and guarantee the company's long-term success...

According to a Masterclass source, Nooyi will teach her class how to combine big-picture thinking with meticulous analysis to tackle the most challenging problems by looking at a number of case studies and projects that helped define her career. She will outline her "7 Cs of Leadership," a recipe for achievement that incorporates qualities such as competence, creativity, coaching, and citizenship. By sharing creative insights that helped launch the wildly popular flavoured water brand Bubly, Nooyi will show members how to use competition to improve their own businesses.

Nooyi will also discuss how she creates a business plan from the "outside-in" and how members can use megatrends to inform their own strategy. In a case study on crisis management, Nooyi will share her experiences working with ReOpen Connecticut during the COVID-19 pandemic as the advisory group's co-chair and collaborating with the state to strike a careful balance between saving businesses and maintaining public safety.

Regarding her class, Nooyi said: "Although I will speak from my experience as a CEO in this class, the fundamental ideas apply to all types of businesses. I will also use PepsiCo's "Performance With Purpose" as the cornerstone to delineate strategic thinking, establish a course, and guarantee the company's long-term success. Members will become better leaders, thinkers, listeners, and problem-analyzers as a result of taking this class."
