One of the hardest parts of being a leader is handling legitimate disagreements about values. This book discusses the human psychology that drives these conflicts as well as the philosophical frameworks that have guided people for millennia. The authors provide readers with strategies for implementing their values in their lives and organizations.

As societies become more polarized, there is increasing pressure for business leaders to have a sense of purpose and to make moral decisions. Being a good leader requires both a keen understanding of the realities of human decision making as well as an analysis of what is right and wrong. This book integrates lessons from three intellectual traditions – psychology, philosophy, and political economy – to guide readers on a journey to rigorously explore their values and decision making. The authors begin by examining people's intuitions about right and wrong. They then clarify principles that embody these intuitions and help readers engage with others whose intuitions or principles differ from their own. Ultimately, this book teaches readers how to be strategic as they lead with their values: as individuals, as designers of organizations, and as businesspeople interacting with societal institutions.

Arvustused

'This is a marvelous book. Malhotra and Shotts combine results from the leading edge of at least four disciplines - normative ethics, behavioral ethics, organizational theory and political economy - to give us an integrated account of what it means to take values seriously as a business and as a business leader. In a world in which simply maximizing shareholder value is no longer enough, they give us a roadmap for what it means to act ethically that is both theoretically grounded and deeply practical. In the business world there's a lot of loose talk about 'purpose'. This is the book to read if you're curious as to what it might look like in action.' Rebecca Henderson, John and Natty McArthur University Professor, Harvard University, Author of Reimagining Capitalism in a World on Fire 'Businesses everywhere are being asked to do better. Leading with Values helps show us how, by providing tools and insights for a new era of responsible, engaged business leadership' Jim Coulter, Co-Founder, TPG and Managing Partner, The Rise Funds 'Malhotra and Shotts have achieved the seemingly impossible: they have written a truly useful book on ethical leadership. Unlike other books, Leading with Values recognizes its goal is not to turn the reader into an armchair philosopher. Instead, they brilliantly integrate philosophical insights, psychological tendencies, and organizational realities to offer a clear and replicable path for solving any real-world leadership challenge.' Adam Galinsky, Paul Calello Professor of Leadership and Ethics, Columbia Business School Co-author of Friend & Foe ' a concise, usable, and balanced guide to making ethical decisions in business.' Donald R. Riccomini, Technical Communication
