LinkedIn's 'Incredible Movies to Inspire Leaders' Are All About Men

Steve Tappin is a CEO expert. We’re pretty sure of this because he describes himself on LinkedIn as “CEO Xinfu, Host of BBC CEO Guru & Founder, WorldOfCEOs.com.” He’s also a “personal confidant to many of the world’s top CEOs.” Steve is very popular.

Steve is also someone to trust, because so many CEOs trust him. His recent blog post, “Incredible Movies To Inspire Leaders,” is recommended on LinkedIn’s front page so that we can all benefit from Steve’s wisdom and become CEOs ourselves. “If you want find fresh inspiration for your leadership, life and team then you will love this post featuring 15 of the most amazing and inspiring movies ever,” he writes. You will especially love it if you are a dude, as 100% of these movies are about dudes.

“As we watch a certain movies they seem to tap into our spirit and deepest motivations,” Steve continues. “I have noted below a few qualities that resonated with me, in order to guide you on movies you might not know. When you watch the movies, it would be great to think about and capture the qualities and emotions that they stir in you.”

You could read the list, which runs the gamut from Gladiator to Schindler’s List to Rocky to Braveheart, or you could just read The Toast’s brilliant “A Day In the Life of a Troubled Male Antihero.” OR you could watch some of our favorite inspirational movies, which include (don’t judge): Yentl, The First Wives Club, Pan’s Labyrinth, A League of Their Own, Nine to Five, and Erin Brockovich.
