One “must” for this week
“The transformational power of ethical leadership” by IESE Business School.
Leading is more than managing resources, making decisions, and designing strategies. It goes well beyond orders and discipline, of course.
Beyond the essential technical and management skills, respectful, critical thinkers and ethically responsible leaders can achieve more ambitious goals by fostering a collaborative environment based on shared values and pursuing the common good.
And it all starts with leading and often changing ourselves.
