Summary
"Seeking inspiration from an eclectic range of sources such as Dante, Immanuel Kant, and Peter Drucker, and drawing from his own career as a successful investment banker, the author examines how business leaders - and those who aspire to be business leaders - can flourish in a corporate environment without shedding personal values or compromising integrity. Living Into Leadership is based on the author's actual life experiences, personal ethical dilemmas, and concerns. This work incorporates classroom materials developed by the author for ethics programs at various business schools. The central question this book considers is how to pursue an engaged business career while living a balanced life and continuing to grow as an integrated person."--BOOK JACKET.
