My Take
Jamie Dimon strikes me as the last of a certain breed: the banker as institution. Running JPMorgan Chase since 2006 means he has steered one firm through the financial crisis, a pandemic, and every rate cycle in between, and somehow emerged with more authority each time. I appreciate his bluntness, with shareholder letters that read like state-of-the-economy addresses and opinions delivered without consultant polish. You can quarrel with Wall Street's power, and I sometimes do, but as a study in durable leadership Dimon is hard to beat. Longevity at that altitude is not luck; it is a discipline.
