About this listen
Sulaiman Ansari is a seasoned global business leader with nearly three decades of experience across six continents and brands like Unilever, PepsiCo, Gillette, and Lipton. Originally trained in comparative religion, he never planned a corporate path — instead, it unfolded through what he calls “a series of happy accidents.” Today, he brings deep experience, grounded wisdom, and a refreshingly human lens to leadership.
In this episode, Sulaiman reflects on what it means to lead when you don’t have it all figured out — and why flexibility, failure, and faith often matter more than control. He talks about learning to “follow the breadcrumbs,” how decision-making gets better with practice, and what it takes to build teams that think differently. This is a warm, reflective conversation about evolving through challenge, finding purpose at work, and letting life (sometimes) take the wheel.
