A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Responsibility as a leader is the ability to respond quickly to a complex and changing business environment. It means using values to make decisions that not only affect brand trust and corporate reputation, but impact upon employees and the wider community. In today's increasingly interconnected world, it is more important than ever that leaders can achieve goals and desired results while still maintaining a degree of authenticity, ethics and stewardship. The Responsible Leader identifies what it means to be an authentic leader, taking in intra-organizational relationships, role modelling and ethical practice. Addressing the challenge of implementing a framework of responsibility in an organization that may embrace thousands of people, The Responsible Leader sets out what this means in practice in order to create a new and hopeful narrative for the future. Drawing on in-depth case studies from HSBC, PwC, The Body Shop, Starbucks and BP that chart the journey to responsible leadership in challenging environments, it presents a fresh vision for leadership success that goes beyond simple compliance.
