Rezensionen
'Business leadership must have at its core an extraordinary obligation to do the right thing. Here, for the first time, we have a comprehensive study of what doing the right thing really is - of how Responsible Leadership can and should become a central feature of how we do business.'

Samuel A. DiPiazza, Jr., retired global CEO, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Mayo Clinic.

'Seldom has a single book united so many different voices so well. A global list of premier thinkers and successful practitioners tackle the definition of "responsible leadership." The result is provocative and multi-layered.'

Thomas Donaldson, Mark O. Winkelman Professor of Legal Studies, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania

'At last! A book that takes ethics and responsibility as serious and central components of leadership. This is one of the rare books on leadership that is worth reading and re-reading. The chapters give us a deep and practical understanding of how "responsible leadership" can work. It should change the way that we think about leadership and organizations.'

R. Edward Freeman, Olsson Professor of Business Administration & Academic Director, The Business Roundtable Institute for Corporate Ethics, The Darden School, University of Virginia

'A unique exploration of the multiple facets of responsible leadership, this fascinating book certainly challenges and inspires leaders to reconcile moral dilemmas, to lead from within with authenticity and integrity, to develop responsible leaders, and to pave the way towards a society where ethics and economics meet together. A great(ly awaited) second edition that should become the compass of a growing number of leaders for the years to come.'

Luc Janin, Senior Partner, Korn Ferry

'Are most leaders irresponsible, or do they just not know how to be(come) responsible leaders? Surely, it takes character and competence to fill a leadership role, but to be successful over time, any leader needs to consider the interests of their constituents and serve the common good, rather than their own and their organisation's self-interest. If you are one such leader, congratulations - you won't need this book. If you have any doubt, you will! Learn from the authors' insights, put into practice, and lead the change. That way, a third edition will be a celebration of what we learned by listening.

Susanne Stormer, Partner and Head of Sustainability, PwC Denmark, Visiting (Associate) Professor at UC Berkeley Haas
