Synopsis

Over the last several years, many of our most pressing national challenges have been caused or aggravated by a failure of wisdom or character in leaders in finance, business, government, and education. The stock market collapse, mortgage industry implosion, failing schools, increasingly fractured families, and indeed, this current demoralizing political season, all have roots in a failure of citizenship, character, and community. Exacerbating this trend is the fact that there are so few spaces and resources available for reflection and conversation on “first principles” – what makes for a healthy family, business, organization, or society. For leaders to embody and transmit the values and principles that make for a flourishing culture, they must first develop and internalize those values themselves. This curriculum enables readers to explore the current challenges to character on both an individual and national scale, and the means of developing the courage needed for coming times.
