Crucial Life & Leadership Lessons From Sébastien Bazin, CEO Of Accor With Jacob Morgan

Who among you dreams of being a CEO of a large company?

Sébastien Bazin, Chairman and CEO of Accor, never dreamed of being one. All he knew was he didn’t want to go into the family business, which was a real estate company his family had owned for five generations.

He wanted to do his own thing, and carve his own path.

At that time, three CEOs had been dismissed from the company, and as it turned out, Sebastien was the next in line to become CEO.
