IRC's David Miliband: How can leaders meet the moment in a more disordered world

Leaders today face climate havoc, geopolitical instability and a 'more chaotic form of globalization,' said David Miliband, the president and chief executive officer of humanitarian organization International Rescue Committee. On this recent Meet the Leader, he explains how leaders can navigate this more disordered world and an 'age of impunity' – a trend he's tracked for years where some seem less accountable to the power they yield. He explains the challenge he sees for leaders of all stripes in the near future, giving practical advice on how leaders can stay accountable to the big picture and better meet the moment to craft tactical strategies and drive cooperation for positive change.


This interview was recorded October 2025 in the World Economic Forum New York Office.
