David M. Cote is Executive Chairman of Vertiv Holdings Co, a global data center products and services provider. Previously, as CEO of the industrial giant Honeywell, he grew the company's market capitalization from around $20 billion to nearly $120 billion, delivering returns of 800 percent and beating the S&P by nearly two and a half times.

How his perspective can help you: David has a novel and often eschewed perspective on business. He perpetuates the idea that it is possible to balance short-term goals with long-term objectives, even in times of change or crisis. There's a whole chapter in his book about how he led Honeywell successfully through the 2008 recession by having the courage to implement unorthodox moves that positioned the company to expand rapidly after the recession ended. Learn from those leaders who have led before you. Check out David Cote's book and e-course, which features a ton of additional content to help you put his strategies into practice.
