New era requires responsible leadership

The fourth industrial revolution involving intelligence calls for a more inclusive style of leadership, said Danil Kerimi, regional deputy head of a Beijing-based World Economic Forum affiliated center.

Kerimi, who works at the Center for the Fourth Industrial Revolution China, said leaders need to be cognizant of the changing social, political, and technological environment so that they will be able to "provide leadership under the new changed circumstances".
