Liderazgo ético : Cómo influir con el ejemplo

Today’s world needs nonconformists and provocateurs—people who prove their worth by confronting problems and stepping up to lead society. It needs leaders. In this book, the reader will discover what defines a leader, how one develops into a leader, and what personal characteristics and priorities a leader should possess. To this end, the author draws upon insights from classical Greek philosophy and modern scientific knowledge, particularly in the field of neurobiology. The book traces the shaping of the leader’s profile: men and women who are generous, noble, and full of hope; who are capable of shunning corruption and flattery; and who are ready to act with prudence while acquiring the best technical skills to place at the service of others. These are leaders who remain serene in the face of adversity and inspire us to reflect on the foundations of human greatness—a greatness rooted not merely in material achievements, but, above all, in goodness. Ultimately, a leader is someone who guides others toward a fulfilling life—a life in which true happiness is possible.
