On April 1, Lazard CEO and Chairman Peter Orszag joined MIT Principal Research Scientist Andrew McAfee and CNBC’s Leslie Picker at the CNBC Councils: Leaders’ Library for a live discussion on Andrew's book, "The Geek Way: The Radical Mindset that Drives Extraordinary Results."
During the conversation, Peter noted that he selected this particular book to discuss because several core principles that Andrew outlines align with the future vision of Lazard, our leadership, and continuous transformation. He emphasized Lazard's reputation for excellence at the intersection of content and relationships and underscored our commitment to embodying transparency and open information sharing firmwide. Peter also highlighted AI's growing impact in the modern workplace with a nod to respecting tradition while embracing the future, a duality that represents Lazard today.
