Values-Based Leadership: Lessons from Baxter’s CEO with Harry Kraemer

A conversation with Harry Kraemer, former CEO of Baxter International. Here’s the uncomfortable truth we don’t talk about enough in business and in HealthTech: AI is flattening the hard-skill curve. The work that once signaled experience and seniority — financial modeling, risk analysis, strategic frameworks, even elements of clinical workflow design — can now be generated in seconds with a prompt. Harry jokes that AI can compute your weighted average cost of capital in three seconds — and he’s right. The technical knowledge we used to spend years developing is rapidly becoming commoditized. So what actually differentiates leaders now? According to Harry Kraemer — former CEO of Baxter, Executive Partner at Madison Dearborn, and my former professor at Kellogg — the moat is shifting back to something profoundly human: How you lead. How you communicate. How you build trust. How you make people want to follow you. I had the privilege of studying under Harry years ago. His leadership classes shaped how I think about teams, decisions, and purpose. Sitting down with him again for this podcast felt like coming full circle — and it hit differently now, through the lens of 2025’s HealthTech landscape.
