OTA LEADERSHIP INDEX

Patti LaBelle

ARCHETYPE

The Guardian

What holds, and what fails, under pressure, standards and accountability.

Patti LaBelle earns The Guardian because her power flows from protection and provision, not ambition or disruption. She feeds people literally, building a food brand around quality at accessible prices, and emotionally, through decades of devotion to collaborators, fans, and her late sisters' legacies. Her instincts to forgive, to pray, and to make sure others are cared for describe a leader who creates the conditions in which people feel safe and held.

IN THEIR WORDS, WHY GUARDIAN

“I just love loving on people. I just do.”
ON HER CORE NATURE AS A GIVER

“I asked for peace, and I asked for kids not to be hungry. I just wish that we could be nicer, kind in this world.”
ON WHAT SHE PRAYS FOR

“I hope my heart never changes. I hope I continue that. I will continue to give, and I don't want that to change.”
ON WHAT SHE HOPES NEVER CHANGES ABOUT HERSELF
